In the rest of #France, Socialists won in #Marseille and #Lille.
Great news that the far right was defeated in #Marseille, and that ecologist mayor Gregory Doucet takes #Lyon !
France's Socialists hold on to power in major cities in election boost for mainstream
Paris and Marseille are held by the Socialists in local elections which saw the nationalist right win in Nice and certain towns.

@straphanger I like the cut of his jib....
Is helmet use while riding bicycles not common there? It always seems strange to me when it isn't. Luckily, I've never had any sort of crash where one has met the road, but I used to use mine as a battering ram while riding through overhanging vines and crap on roads in Florida.

Thing I learned the hard way: do not attempt this with bougainvillea. Damn if that didn't look like I'd just come out of an anime battle.

What this actually means: #Environmental policy doesn’t mean you have to die because there aren’t enough cars
or that there’s some sort of #Nazi! #munchen #paris #berlin #verkehrspolitk #verkehr #fahrrad #wahlen #grune #spd #deutschland #autolobby #reiche -

Hello. Here, the helmet is mandatory only before 12 YO, and recommended after. Agree that it's easier to identify Emmanuel Grégoire with no helmet

@Chtixof @straphanger Yeah, point absolutely taken there. That borders on "recognizeable on tight TV shot only" territory.
