There are also a number of cycling/ safety/ accident related hashtags in German. Don't have the time to list them all now, might make a list later if I remember.

@meganL #Quaxing is a New Zealand term that means to run errands (shop in particular I think) by bike. I've seen some residents complain it doesn't get used here enough.

@meganL One that is close to my heart is #Fatbike for those of us who ride with proper big tyres

[x_tof@verkehrswende.social]

@meganL what about #vikingbiking - is this still a thing?
And the most important one: #tallbike

[47363@norden.social]

@meganL

Okay, I made a list of bike-related hashtags.
With translations and some short explanations (for most entries).

A word of warning: the toots using #'s from the bottom of that list ("category: conflict") can contain a lot of frustration and aggression.

Maybe we should also tag in bike-related groups such as @fedibiker
or
@fedibikes

And … sorry, no AltTxt yet, I need a break first.

<Edit:>
Just the hashtags in AltTxt now due to character limit.
