New Premier, new attitude to active tranport?<\/a> Val and Faith share their bike moments; for Val a moment alongside the Yarra in training mode and for Faith a reminder of what a great night the Big Bike Film Night<\/a> is!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We discuss the changes in the Victorian government over the past week with the announcement of a new Premier, Ben Carroll, leading into the Victorian election. As Transport Minister in the past Ben Carroll attempted some positive changes public transport and for people interested in using a bike to get around, will this translate into his premiership? You can catch up with Peter Parker’s thoughts here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And who will be our new Active Transport Minister? Or willl Deputy Gabrielle Williams want to retain the prestige of the role for herself? [sarcasm] <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Politics segues into the upcoming election and the Gimme 5 campaign with Bicycle Network <\/a>and community groups across Victoria. Providing a dedicated funding stream for building startegic cycling corridors would certainly be a positive step towards the integrated transport system often described in government policy but rarely realised. Have you spent 2 minutes using the platform to send an email <\/a>to your local MP? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also chat about the upcoming presentation by Marco te Br\u00f6mmelstroet hosted by Bicycle Network on August 18th where Marco will talk about the Hill of Hysteria. <\/em>Get your tickets here!<\/a><\/p>\n
