Council votes to open more street width to cyclists during Covid
Hindy Schacter wrote a fine post appended to the cutback in Vision Zero thread and this might have been added to hers but I'm eager you see this—but do read hers.
Going, going, going down, down down: Vision Zero program.
The city will close all outdoor pools for the season, cut its Vision Zero traffic safety program even though pedestrian and cyclist fatalities were on the rise
On the lighter side of "Spacing" news.

Zwift Greater London 8 Virtual Ride Tonight at 6:00 PM
I submitted one yesterday for 6:00 tonight, April 16th....has not been approved yet. I run weekly rides for the Team Red White and Blue Veterans group and am opening it up for NYCC members. It is using the stay together feature, where no one gets dropped. If you want to ride tonight, you have to first follow me on the Zwift companion app - Hudson Hartmann (Team RWB). Then I can send you an invitation for tonight's ride. We are riding London tonight.
It would be helpful if you had (NYCC) after your Zwift user name, as the stay together feature only let's me invite 50 of my closest friends, and I have to scroll through a lot of names. Or send me an e-mail at [email protected]
