What happened to bicycles being so manouevreable and stopping on a sixpence
and being so light they never hurt anyone?

What happened to the "cyclists can't kill" theory?

The man was obviously walking too fast for the conditions. I bet you're
terribly disappointed that you weren't able to mention pavements or red
traffic
lights.

I regularly manage to avoid pedestrians who cross the road without
looking, but I'm not getting any younger, and the pedestrians are
always working out new ruses. And don't ask me whether they wear
helmets!

Bicycles are. Maybe some people riding them aren't.

I doubt very much that it was the pedestrian that was moving too fast to
avoid a collision. Do you really think the 80 year old walked or ran into a
stationary cyclist, killing himself in the process?

More odd claims.
If you are new here, Cheerless likes to misrepresent what has been posted in the past. Nobody claims bicycles are capable of stopping on a sixpence and only Doug ever claimed cylists didn't hurt or even kill people.

I don't think so. It's a deduction I made with Cheerless logic.

Here he goes again, deep in denial.

Loads & loads of psycholists have made the claim that cycles stop faster
than any other vehicle on the planet and that cyclists cannot kill people.
