Important Cycling Safety Tips

The family, clearly, don’t accept this:

A lot of good that did.

This is important, because ONLY with concrete is an HGV heavy enough to make a bycicle riders impersonation of a severly smeared raspberry jam butty realistic!

Oh I dunno FT, I would have thought 10 ton of brick would have left a deep impression on the silly mare too :-)

It remains a fact that there is only one capital offence in the Universe... Stupidity. The sentence is Death and is carried out with remorseless efficiency. A possible Darwin contender? I cycle myself but am amazed at the number of roadusers who insist upon trying to stay alive on MY reaction times.

I am at present involved in a heated debate re cyclist using cycle ways our local council has spent £100k putting these in, and guess what they don't use them. why I don't know, but it's all the motorists fault.

It would have been more dramatic had it been full of wind turbines or better still - bicycles!

These Russkies don't like the explanation despite the lorry having every safety measure possible, plus a tachograph to nail the evil - speeding driver roaring around at 13 mph. They probably think the Easter Bunny hijacked Malaysian 370.

The usual leftards in the Evening Standard, incandescent with gusset rash - are full of indignation about this and the bonus Iraqi - who must have been giving the Listerine a hammering as I thought his lot did not drink.

One of my favourites is 'Mark', who says:
Around 10,000 a year die on our roads and the police estimate that speed is a factor in around 50%. You want to stop deaths, enforce speeding limits, enforce drink driving limits, enforce driving bans, enforce MOTs and the number of deaths will reduce in teh (sic) hundreds if not thousands.

I'd really like to see Mark get closer to the front page in the Evening Substandard one day.

Yes, it really wouldn't have made a differemce if it had been carrying quilts, would it?

"It remains a fact that there is only one capital offence in the Universe... Stupidity. "

But the Progressives are determined to stamp this out, so more of the stupid can survive to breed.

"...but it's all the motorists fault."

The LycraMonster's Credo!
