| 30484 | ![]() | Stall bike at the end of the Reach Fair reconnaissance ride 2011. | Cycle parking: Good practice ![]() |
| 30483 | ![]() | One of our rather hard to see arrows pointing upwards on the lamppost here to reassure riders that straight on is the way to Reach Fair. | General sign/notice: Good practice ![]() |
| 30482 | ![]() | There's a missing drain cover here - which being so close to the edge of the cycleway could be nasty. The Highways Dept. at County have responded quickly on this and are sending an emergency team out to fix it, which is very much appreciated. (However this was not done by the time of the ride #30584). Presumably this cover has been stolen for it's metallic value. | Cycleway: Problem ![]() |
| 30481 | ![]() | This is what happens when you fall off your bike - your hand gets cut at the base of the palm. A bit of a sting, but you can carry on! This cyclist caught some loose grit on the 90 degree turn here and threw her hand out to break the fall. | Cycleway: Event ![]() |
| 30480 | ![]() | Patronizing sign whose aim seems to be avoidance of liability if a cyclist jolts their bike because there is a bit of a ramp ahead. Otherwise this is an excellent bridge. | General sign/notice: Problem ![]() |
| 30479 | ![]() | Road closed for a Royal Wedding street party in Swaffham Prior. | Road environment: Event ![]() |
| 30478 | ![]() | Road closed in Swaffham Prior for a Royal Wedding street party. | Road environment: Good practice ![]() |
| 30477 | ![]() | With the road closed for a street party we wheeled our bikes past. | Road environment: Event ![]() |
| 30476 | ![]() | This is one of the reasons that we're not going to be using the shared-use footway on the Reach Ride route. | Cycleway: Problem ![]() |
| 30475 | ![]() | AFTER - 15 minutes later Cleared! See before at #30474 | Roadworks: Good practice ![]() |

| 30357 | ![]() | Rather smart advertising for the Cambridge News at the Grand Arcade Cycle Park. But note the new sign on the right which is a plea to dismount. | General sign/notice: Good practice ![]() |
| 30356 | ![]() | Artistic response to finger wagging signage ! The top sign spells out in detail some archaic by-law that 'CYCLES MUST ONLY USE THE SPACES PROVIDED' blah blah blah. The main poster (which is now quite old and faded) announces CYCLE REMOVAL - a mass extermination policy designed to intimidate anyone daring to cycle the the railway station. The railway company is effectively putting up a big sign here saying WE HATE CUSTOMERS WHO TURN UP ON A BIKE. | General sign/notice: Problem ![]() |
| 30355 | ![]() | See #30253 | Other: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30354 | ![]() | It looks like the building works in this area are nearing completion, but are the racks that were in front of these bollards (See #2193 and #10821) going to be re-instated? Ah, yes they have been: #30984. Many thanks and well done! | Cycle parking: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30320 | ![]() | See #30253 | Other: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30319 | ![]() | Red illuminated studs indicate the location of bollards on each side of the path. This path has no street lighting and is pitch black at night. White illuminated studs have also been installed down the centre of the path: two or three can be seen in the distance. | Cycleway: Good practice ![]() |

| 30300 | ![]() | Temporary signs that we'll need to put up in Beche Road and Priory Road for the Reach Fair ride because of the roadworks shown at #28344 http://www.camcycle.org.uk/events/rides/ http://twitter.com/#search?q=ReachRide | General sign/notice: Event ![]() |
| 30298 | ![]() | Trees being planted beside where I believe the Trumpington Meadows link will eventually run. | Other: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30295 | ![]() | This newly widened combined-use path is a big improvement. Hopefully no-one cycles into these lamp-posts though! Addendum: The lamp-posts now have reflective strips in them so they're a lot more visible at night. See #30594. | Cycleway: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30294 | ![]() | I like this use of road-markings to make cars entering/exiting this private driveway aware of the cycle-path. | General sign/notice: Good practice ![]() |
| 30292 | ![]() | I assume this "dismount" sign applies to the path, and not the road? | General sign/notice: Event ![]() |
| 30290 | ![]() | We've sourced these flags, windsocks and streamers for our #ReachRide http://www.camcycle.org.uk/events/rides/ from http://www.skyblueleisure.co.uk/ | Other: Event ![]() |

| 30278 | ![]() | NO MOTOR CYCLES - CYCLISTS DISMOUNT; NO CYCLING CYCLISTS DISMOUNT - NO MOTOR CYCLES, two sets of signs facing in different directions. There should be no such signs on a national cycle route. | Cycleway: Problem ![]() |
| 30276 | ![]() | Cycle Route Planner: Adding lines This screen cast was made in 2006 and demonstrates the original 'route editor' that we used back then to contstruct a routing network. This was previously hosted on Google video (where it had 91 views) who seem to be closing that service now. (Sorry about the very low quality - I never did get on top of how to configure the screencast software properly.) See also #30275 | Other: Misc ![]() |
| 30275 | ![]() | Journey Planner Screencast Here's a low quality screen-cast that was made of the site in 2006. It demonstrates how to plan a route, back then we were jusing Google Maps version 2. This was previously hosted on Google video (where it had 39 views) who seem to be closing that service now. (Sorry about the very low quality - I never did get on top of how to configure the screencast software properly.) See also #30276 | Other: Misc ![]() |
| 30274 | ![]() | near Music Concert Hall main entrance - more needed. Also the ones that are there are slightly too close together. | Cycle parking: Problem ![]() |

| 30272 | ![]() | Due to the road closure this ice cream seller removed the cones and was driving up the cycle lane. Corn Exchange Street, Cambridge | Enforcement: Event ![]() |

| 30256 | ![]() | I think the 20 mph sign here is new. | General sign/notice: Good practice ![]() |
| 30255 | ![]() | A little surprising to see Network Rail using this street as an overflow car park for the station, but anyway, I took this photo because I think the 20 mph sign here is new. Its covered in spray streamer - as part of the celebration ? | Road environment: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30254 | ![]() | See #30253 | Other: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30253 | ![]() | I took this photo to mark the point where over the coming months I am going to take a series of photos that will be a sort of time-lapse for the construction of the new station platform here. I have devised a way of positioning my camera... The first one is at #30254 and the gallery is at http://cambridge.cyclestreets.net/galleries/187/ | Other: Infrastructure ![]() |
| 30252 | ![]() | During these ongoing works to add a promenade to Riverside the gate has been left ajar to allow cyclists to pass. My reading of the map sign shown at #30251 tells me that two cattle grids will be installed, and a pedestrian gate. | Cycleway: Good practice ![]() |
| 30251 | ![]() | I think its really helpful to have such a detailed map of the ongoing works at this location - despite the grafiti in the 'comments section' of this sign. The big red arc next to the river is for pedestrians only, cyclists approaching from the left will have to go along the road to the right of the Elizabeth Way pillars and then turn left through the green area to join the roadway there. That bit of riverside will become a dead-end for cars, so the whole junction which has been quite unsatisfactory could become much better. | General sign/notice: Good practice ![]() |
| 30250 | ![]() | This is the reaction I had today from the operator of this lorry when I took this photo of him while he was transferring pallets of bricks over the cycle path. The pallets were being lifted off one end of the lorry or trailer and being swung round over the cycle path - in the photo you can see a strut coming out of the left side of the lorry onto the path. Normally I would expect such procedures to require closing the cycle path and for barriers to be placed to protect the public. He shouted at me from the controls of the crane, parked the crane, got down and is shown running towards me demanding that I delete the photo. He claimed that I was 'violating his human rights' by taking a photo of him, and that he was going to call the police. I said I'd be happy for the police to be called. His reaction clearly demonstrated to me that he knew he should not be operating his vehicle over the pavement cycleway here. He called me a name and was initially very threatening and intimidating. I have blurred out the face and the details on the lorry. I am not planning to take the issue further as my hope is that he'll realise that there is a proper place for moving goods around. But I shall follow it up if I see this happening again. Feedback from a viewer says: "I'm not sure that closing the path and erecting barriers is necessary with the traffic level being fairly low, although an assistant would probably be a good idea to ensure safety - BUT he should certainly have used a pad under the jack leg to protect the surface of the path." | Other: Problem ![]() |
| 30249 | ![]() | Proof that deliveries and works to this hotel do not need to be done by blocking the Regent Street cycle lane near Pizza Hut. | Obstruction: Good practice ![]() |

| 30243 | ![]() | Scandalous that this parking, which causes an obstruction to buses, cycles and other traffic becomes free during the rush hour at 5pm! | Car parking: Problem ![]() |

| 30201 | ![]() | Roadmarking on cycleway beside the A10 near Hauxton. Do cyclists really have to give way at this private driveway? | Road environment: Problem ![]() |
| 30172 | ![]() | The new section of the Tins path. The fence was previously to the left of the trees here, its great to see the trees have been kept and the path made as wide as this. highway=footway bicycle=yes | Cycleway: Good practice ![]() |
| 30171 | ![]() | Roy Pegram cuts the (recycled) ribbon to declare the Tins Bridge officially open at last! A small group of councillors (it is election time soon), council officers and cycling campaigners were among the group of onlookers. The project engineer explained to me why the bridge didn't fit in the first place (see #29032). Apparently the measured angle was 41 degrees (between the crossing line and the centre line of Burnside) but the bridge was built with a 'skew angle' of 49 degrees. The angle used to measure the length of the bridge was 41 degrees, but it was built with an angle of 49 - which made it too long. I don't know if it is a co-incidence that 49 + 41 = 90. But it is lucky the error was that way round as otherwise the bridge would have been too short! | Cycleway: Event ![]() |
