Karl McCracken Guest Speaker

Posted on March 7, 2010 1 Comment

Leading cycling campaigner, Karl McCracken is the guest speaker at Darlington Cycling Campaign’s forthcoming open lecture event.

The second event of the new DCC season is on Friday 19th March when we welcome Karl McKraken. He has titled his illustrated talk “What’s needed to make riding a bike part of the transport rather than the sports & leisure agenda”

This will certainly chime with any cyclist who views their bicycle as a legitimate means of everyday transport and yet wonders to themselves…’Surely, things could be better than this?’?

Karl’s talk will be very much an open forum, with everyone encouraged to ask questions and voice opinions. For more information on the McCracken view of everyday cycling, please visit his website at www.mccracken.me.uk

The talk is being held at Darlington Arts Centre on Friday 19th March, starting from 7.30pm in the Media Workshop, Entry is free and open to all.

This temporary cycleway in Utrecht is better than any permanent infrastructure in #Darlington, a cycle demonstration town.
Cycling in Utrecht accounts for up to 33% of all trips [2014] whereas is Darlington, cycling accounts for < 3% [2017]

This morning I went back to the (future) largest bicycle parking in the world to see how the new temporary access path works in rush hour. Utrecht, Netherlands. See for yourself:

We were contacted by a Darlovelo member, saying his route to work along McMullen Road was obstructed.
Matthew went out to take a look and took these pictures.
We contacted Darlington Borough Council as these works failed to follow the correct Safety at Street Works code of practice.
We received a response admitting their failings, apologising and promising to ensure safe routes for people walking and cycling are in place in future.

If you see any obstructions to cycling infrastructure, please take pictures (if safe to do so) and forward them to us via a Direct Message to this page.
