Saw part of the program on BBC2 tonight.

The police were called to an accident on the A10 - at night - thought to be
involving a cyclist.

As the officer said - the A10 is an unlit dual carriage way with no street
lights and fast traffic - it is not place for cyclists.

I quite agree.


Perhaps, then, the authorities will think about making it safe for
cyclists. Perhaps speed humps and a 20 mph limit would do the trick -
certainly a cheaper alternative to a segregated Dutch style cycle
track.


In your dreams.

How much do you want them to spend - and what will that be per cyclist using
the road per annum?

Perhaps the cyclists could use an alternative route.

Bertie Wooster's real name is Tom Crispin.
He uses the name Bertie Wooster so that people involved with
Young Lewisham and Greenwich Cyclists and John Ball primary school
can't see what a tosser he is.
