Inspecting some of my town's cycling infrastructure with Duck Norris

Autumn colours are starting to take over

Still feels like summer though, once the afternoon heat settles in

Rode this one today, as it's my birthday, and the bike was a birthday present from my wife many years ago. LIke us all, it's evolved a bit over the years

I've been putting a lot of miles on this bike lately. The first geared bike I've had for about 25 years.

Spent a lot of the weekend cruising around the Bayside on the '82 Sprint. The VW owners had a display on too.

No time to build, too busy riding my bikes on protest rides and keeping track of all the other events happening... September is just too crazy...
On my way to another protest ride. More pictures later today...

As promised here are some more info about and pics from todays protest ride:

The conservative Senat in Berlin just recently cut down almost all funding of bike infrastructure projects:

• bikelanes: only 4,2 km built (our mobility law states that this year 100 km should be built)
• bike fast lanes: 9 of them are planned, 8 are pushed back infinitely, only one will be built
• bike parking houses: 4 of 6 are cancelled

So you can imagine, that a lot of the cyclists in Berlin are pretty angry about how the local government (Senat) treats us, who try to use the bike as a regular mode of transport within the city.

Today we did a "star cruise" so on every branch of the bike fast lanes one of the many initiatives and activist groups organized a protest ride and we all joined at the Siegessäule to continue from there on to the Rotes Rathaus (the city hall) to express our anger.... In the end we were 3000!

Our group The RespectCyclists started way up in the north, that's why I took the S-Bahn to get there (picture of my last post). It was way to hot (36° C) today to cycle up there from the south, where I'm at...

But enough talking/writing, here are some pictures...
