Just discovered these Lime bikes outside MKC Station, as soon as I’ve downloaded the app and signed up I’ll be on my way. The cost is £1 to unlock and then 15 pence per minute which works out at about £1 per mile. https://www.li ... [more]
An advisory 'NO CYCLING' sign on NCN51 through Central Milton Keynes. Cycling is not prohibited here, if it were then the round no cycling sign would have been used. What this demonstrates is the lack of a sign to suggest that cycles should ... [more]
While most sensible places are getting rid of city centre car parking MK is throwing in the towel and building this 1,000 space multi-storey car storage and congestion generator.
It's hard to see in this photo but in the distance there are many pedestrian barriers used as chicanes to deter cycling on this former bike route into CMK.
Variety of cycle lockers occupying previous open space and crowding out the trees at Milton Keynes station square. I don't know why they can't be put in the many apparently empty ground floor retail spaces around here. Feels like MK has let ... [more]
Very poor double decker racks in Station Square, Milton Keynes. One problem seems to be that the upper racks do not lock into position, with the result that they slide back and drop.
There are lots of underpasses in Milton Keynes and then for some reason this flat crossing of a main road.
In a city with lots of decent segregated cycle routes, they've decided to send users of NCN route 51 up a main road with heavy bus traffic.
Cycle parking in Milton Keynes and an arrow for users of NCN route 51 to turn right - but I think they mean straight ahead.
You couldn't make it up - there are plenty of decent segregated cycleways in Milton Keynes, and Sustrans manages to find a route for NCN route 51 on whch cycling is not even allowed! See also #101701.

Don't bother taking your bike this way because you'll have to carry it over a stepped bridge acros steh railway.
There's an immense plaza in front of Milton Keynes Central station so why on earth they felt they needed to install awkward unpopular double-deck cycle parking I cannot imagine.
Santander Cycles MK A little bit fiddly to rent but very good bikes and we took five out for a good spin. https://santandercyclesmk.co.uk/
The chicanes here are to dissuade cyclists from the steep bank just after, and that is probably a good thing and anyway there is quite a good nearby alternative just a little further.
A decent amount of cycle parking here, and with a colourful theme. This was taken on a Saturday afternoon so only one bike there.
The redway system normally has two nicely placed poles painted a bright yellow, e.g. #72502. Those standards have not been kept up at this development. Even the (correctly spelled) graffiti suggests a negative connotation: Public pole danci ... [more]
