"Oh nothing, just hanging out at the bike lane with my fresh new kicks." #ProtectedBikeLanesNow
New #ProtectedBikeLanesNow along Amang Rodriguez Ave. in Pasig. Hope they cover the entire avenue soon!
Barriers! Yay! So... now what? #ProtectedBikeLanesNow

Morning rush 🌤
While it takes some practice to get used to, taking the lane forces other road users to do a proper overtake in the other lane rather than swerving into your direction. When starting out, we often think that it's safer near the gutter or sidewalk but it soon becomes obvious to us that road debris, inconsistent surfaces, and other obstacles make it dangerous. Using hand signals, looking over your shoulder, and taking the lane is a practical way to #RideSafe.
It appears that aside from the ones in Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City, buffered bike lanes are also being created along other roads such as Kalayaan Avenue (Kamias to Cubao). While still a work-in-progress, the road improvements are starting to show their merits and flaws. Nevertheless, 2021 seems to be looking up for cyclists in QC. #ProtectedBikeLanesNow
We wish you safer rides in 2021! #ProtectedBikeLanesNow #BikeBikeBike
Cycling Matters stands with women in the fight against violence. Women deserve to be treated with respect and should be able to ride without fear of being harassed.
