ENDQUOTE Somewhat unlikely as the comparator used was a self reporting group of MAMILS and Tour de Peckham angry young yobs in rainbow sunglasses who put their journey times on Strava so they can be king of the small piece of rising ground just outside Euston. Apparently they achieved a speed of just over 16MPH. A more realistic speed for utility cyclists is 9MPH. |

But not when you admitted blasting past schools breaking the speed limit. I've a long memory. Speed limits do not apply to bikes in 20mph zones. How's the new job going Simon? I hope that you are liking it. It has shut down until next week. When it starts up, I will get a call. |
