Thy should all be bike paths!!
NSW recently reopened one somewhere, with a grain focus from memory.

Deadly serious to me.
I get that, rail trails have there place, I've ridden the Central Otago one and it's great, but who's going to ride from say Canberra to Melbourne along a 250km straight flat track along open uncovered plains in 35° when there's the option of the Hunt 1000 route?Deadly serious to me.
Rail trails are awesome, and disused corridors would be amazing bike paths. They flatten shit out for trains. Where we can re implement trains to get cars off the road, there's generally enough space alongside for large sections that...
But yeah, flights'n'shit.“The magnitude and scale of this failure has no precedent,” said John Piatt, the lead researcher. “It was astonishing and alarming, and a red-flag warning about the tremendous impact sustained ocean warming can have on the marine ecosystem.”
Researchers cannot determine how long it would take for the population to rebound – or if it ever will.
“In light of predicted global warming trends and the associated likelihood of more frequent heatwaves”, the study concluded, this could be a stark warning about the impending effects of the climate crisis.
Heaps and heaps and heaps and heaps and heaps more people than will ride a Hunt route. Literally, millions more; and a demographic that spends funds. Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of a Hunt route and have finished a cloudride1000 but they are hardly everyone's cup of tea. Many more folks would like a flat track between B&B accommodation and coffee shops than a four hour climb up 1,000m of vertical on shitty dirt roads.I get that, rail trails have there place, I've ridden the Central Otago one and it's great, but who's going to ride from say Canberra to Melbourne along a 250km straight flat track along open uncovered plains in 35° when there's the option of the Hunt 1000 route?
I understand that the terrain is completely different between the two routes and agree with @climberman to an extent, but some places would be more desirable and lend themselves to rail trails than others, I can see them working well in some parts of Vic and the NSW North Coast but gee everywhere else would be a bit of a grind I reckon.
Old denialist mate today posted that it's not climate change, it's the IOD, BOM says so. Talk about confirmation bias.CC activity happening offshore, out of mind, out of sight:

Yep, because climate change wont have any effect on the behaviour of the dipole...Old denialist mate today posted that it's not climate change, it's the IOD, BOM says so. Talk about confirmation bias.
Wot he said. Hope they get spread far and wide!They are genius.
Yeah best yet I reckon. If anything the situation is bringing some top notch satire.They are genius.
Listen to the message, don't critique the messenger.Thunberg: We're running out of time
Q: So how do you all deal with the haters?
Autumn Peltier says she and her mother get a lot of negative comments -- and they ignore it.
Greta Thunberg sweeps the question aside, and produces a statement she’d like to read instead.
She cites the IPCC report on climate change from 2018, which explained how few years are left to act if there’s a 67% chance of keeping the global temperature rise to below 1.5%.
Thunberg adds that such forecasts doesn’t include feedback loops and tipping points, and also often assume that “future generations will somehow suck hundreds of billions of tonnes of CO2 out of the atmosphere, even though such technology doesn’t exist yet.”With today’s emissions levels, the remaining budget is gone in less than eight years.
These aren’t anyone’s views, this is the science.
She tells Davos:
I know you don’t want to report about these numbers, but I’ll keep saying them until you do, Thunberg concludes.I’ve been repeating these numbers at nearly every speech I’ve given for the last 18 months.
Anybody Who gets the reference, we can be friends.I read that as Davros, the end is closer than I thought.
