Often ranting about TfL's worst Cycleway (#Cycleway1). Tens of thousands of potential cycle journeys are lost every day because huge compromises were made.

This is why you're not supposed to park on the corner at junctions. Especially if you have a big, ugly SUV. No chance of seeing anyone coming until it's too late. Thank goodness for those bicycle painted on the road though! Thanks Haringey Council!

When you try to give way to a child trying to cross a side road in his community in Stamford Hill, but a driver with a van full of kids has other ideas and impatiently drives on the wrong side of the road, nearly knocking the poor boy over! Disgraceful driving Hackney Police!

I reported this left-hooking driver on #Cycleway1 back in September 2025. The Met Police responded saying: "Unfortunately, we can’t pursue the matter any further as there have been no reports made by the driver or the cyclist involved in this incident." Does this sound right?

Hi TfL. Can you please educate your Santander Cycles drivers about Advance Stop Lines (ASLs) and the importance of keeping the cycle boxes clear at junctions. This driver deliberately drove into this one this morning. We should expect better from these drivers. Thanks.

Just another impatient driver beeping their horn at me whilst I let children cross a street on #Cycleway1.

It's appalling that TfL gave money to Hackney Council to create the awful #Cycleway1 route. It's even more appalling when you can't see what they even spent the money on.

Hi TfL. There's clearly something wrong with these cycle signals on Balls Pond Rd #Cycleway1 again. Waited over 3 mins without a green phase yesterday morning! Gave up waiting and walked across in the end. Can they please be fixed. Thanks. (Video at 3.25x speed)

Because Haringey Council removed the dropped kerb from the Holcombe Rd entrance of Down Lane Park, this is the sort of silly manoeuvre you now have to do to enter the park by bike for school runs. Tottenham Hale ‘n heart: Ruth Gordon’s ward watch why is Haringey hellbent on making cycling harder and not easier?

Councils like Haringey Council are hellbent on maintaining two-sided on-street parking on almost every residential street, whilst also maintaining two-way traffic on what little space remains. Resulting in awful cycling conditions for all. Made worse by giant SUVs. Mikehakata
