What a DING - Dong !!!

... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...cs/default.stm Registration of bikes would provide "Complete security for the cyclist". Just like it does for cars? "A growing problem" of dodgy cycling. Is this really true? Are there really an icreasing number of cyclists riding on pavements and jumping red lights? |

Well -it was just a rant and I am surprised the BBC offered him a soapbox. In all my 60yrs of cycling of 100 miles a week on average, I have never experienced any fighting cyclists or motorists Maybe I should get out more. Fred |

"fred2" wrote in message ... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...cs/default.stm Oh dear. I rather liked LP but he diminishes himself with such nonsense. Even if pedal cycles were to be fitted with "gonad slicer" number plates the same problem would remain that the Police barely bother to enforce traffic laws as it is (except for monetisation offences of course). Daily, I see ninja-cyclist plonkers cycling along in black outfits, no lights. I saw some ****wits doing this in the fog last night! |

Personally, I consider them to be as foolish as the drivers who were doing this in freezing fog after sunset a couple of weeks ago.

Being on a cycle with a headlamp moving at 20 MPH, I have the leisure to spot them. Some window-licking motorist travelling at 40 MPH with steamed up windows playing with his mobile phone picking a winner playing pocket billiards and rolling an old virginia might not show the same care due. |
