When I ride Cycle to the Sea, we say upright bikes/support riders and handcycles/handcyclists if you’d like to add those terms too 🚲

Cyclists are not required to dismount if the carriageway remains open
Better signage would be directed at drivers - “Give way to cyclists”
And some cyclists cannot easily dismount, eg handcyclists

Another exciting example on Slateford Road (at admittedly one of Edinburgh's most annoyingly conflicted sections of protected cycle lane).

Wheels for Wellbeing were very excited to see this fantastic example of inclusive cycle parking being made available to handcyclists at @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social London, for users to store their cycle safely, indoors, when out and about where regular bike racks fail to meet needs.

Each October we ride from Charlotte to Myrtle Beach - handcyclists, upright cyclists, and support staff - and fund ASAP which ensures athletes with disabilities continue to enjoy the sports they love. Here’s our group pic from last year 🚲

That still looks awful to me. Poor surface, requires dexterity and strength to operate the gates, still excludes handcyclists and other people using adapted cycles.

Don’t forget the #handcycles! Where my #handcyclists at? #adaptedcycling and #recumbentcycling too! On mastodon I was the first person to use the #aMTB and #handcycling tags. Love to connect with others and hear about your bikes!
