CTC error
The CTC has made an unwise move, I think.
According to the copy of Cycle which arrived this morning, Jon Snow is the new CTC president, having been invited to take the role once Phil Liggett steps down. This will be Jon Snow, the newsreader, who back in February on 'Richard & Judy' (13th February 2006) admitted he tells people not to take up cycling as "it's too dangerous out there" and that cyclists should be kept separate from traffic on separate facilities, so promoting the erroneous view that cycling is inherently dangerous. How long is it going to take before this comes back and bites the CTC in its organisational backside when the media picks up on how the CTC has a president who thinks cyclists should be kept off the roads, yet at the same time supporting Daniel Cadden, a CTC member who was fined for cycling on the road. Mixed messages from the CTC, anyone? I feel like handing in my CTC membership in disgust.
