@malumbu And what part of my  message is "unsubstantiated"?

You quoted Tommies as objecting to a bike lane as they presumably considered it unsafe.  By quoting them you are effectively agreeing with their position at the time.

Having cycled past Tommies scores of times I was neither aware that it was considered unsafe, nor did I see any reason for this.

If you are going to quote other people and organisations you need to tell us why they are correct.

I clearly am not calling you juvenille as I am sure you are aware.

Which is awful. But London has become a lawless Gotham city on Labour watch.  

And if you are an American millioner you can do no wrong - re: Lime & Co

Rather a sweeping statement about London being lawless.  Sort of thing that Trump and Musk would say about Khan

Autocorrect corrected, Musk not Must

No idea who "Must" is.

And it was fun -  and very important to me -  to be part of  the anti Trump demo.

Looking forward to next one 🙂

Well start a thread on floating bus stops.  It feels me with no joy that some road users are dangerous.  But this continued barrage against cyclists gets on my wick (to use polite language).

I don't endanger pedestrians and nor do any of the numerous cyclists that I know.  I similarly would not drive in a way that endangers pedestrians,

Here's a bit of reading.

Worth reporting to Lime, they’re very quick to respond. 

Done a lot. It get worst and worst am afraid. Lime and other ebike companies dump their bikes anywhere they want

It looks like as the supply overtake the demand 🤔

"they're very quick to respond" - meaning what exactly?

Moving ebike from location  A to location B?

Saw one the other day, left smack bang in the middle of a pavement.

How is that even allowed to happen when a photo is needed to be submitted when it's left.  They are a damn nuisance. 

So did I. It was impossible to pass it without walking into the road.

The newly paved, 'landscaped' and pedestrianised end of Melbourne Grove North, looks set to be a Lime Bike and Scooter pick up point. I wonder how much of the 'vital for safety' expanded pedestrian movement area will actually be given over to or even blocked by electric vehicles. Is this anything to do with the huge student accommodation development at Railway Rise?

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
