Car brain: what is it and can it be cured?

25 March | 19:00 | Wesley Memorial Church, New Inn Hall Street, Oxford OX1 2DH

Our first event this year for Cyclox members and friends will help us to consider ‘car brain’ or ‘motornormativity’. We can all fall into the trap of thinking it’s normal for car drivers to have more privileges than cyclists – whether that’s space on the road, parking provision or layouts that suit drivers better than pedestrians and cyclists.

The event will be interactive – room for discussion and a short video.

Admission is free but please register so we know how many to expect.

Kidical Mass Oxford

Kidical Mass is a worldwide movement enabling children to cycle safely in groups on the streets of their towns and cities.

Oxford’s first Kidical Mass ride took place in the summer of 2022 with 100 participants.

Cyclox volunteers plan the routes and keep children safe. It’s a fun activity with a serious message about children’s independence, safe streets and active travel.

Get in touch via kidicalmass@cyclox.org if you’d like to join in.
