I've changed the headline a bit statto rogue cyclists is now in quote marks - but it reflects the tone of the Standard report, which very much majors on the threat posed by errant cyclists and now seems to have added in fears posed by the arrival of the Boris Bike. Although having lived in the area I'd say the odd 'rogue cyclist' is the least of their worries… although if I was armed with only an orange tie it might be one of the first I'd consider tackling too.

Some people would disagree. And there's no need to dismiss other people's targets and achievements, whether big or small.

It also depends whether you want a CHALLENGE, as you call it, or enjoy a ride the way I consider it. I did a 40 mile hilly ride the other Sunday morning. I found it quite hard but still enjoyable and I felt a sense of achievement when I got home. I have no desire to grind myself down for 100 miles unless there is a purpose as I don't find clocking up 3-digit mileages an end in itself.

good to see the "support" officers using their powers
with due diligence and resposibility .... A$"$"% holes !

I think the challenge part comes in with how often you do it.

I hope this goes to court and the Police lose the case and get a ripping for wasting time and money, although I would imagine that the Chief Constable will just put it in the bin to avoid further embarassment.

Ridiculous

62 miles isn't really worthy of being called a CHALLENGE though. A goal maybe, but not a challenge.

He says knowing that 6 months ago he couldn't have ridden 100 miles in a day.

To add to rule 24 and my previous post the 4 nations that are still on imperial measurements, iirc, are USA, Albania, North Korea and Brunei. The rest of the world is in km. (I also sorted out my Garmin so now in km!)

That's handy, I've just qualified as a National Standards Cycle Instructor, ready to start delivering BikeAbility training, about 2 weeks ago.

Looks like I may be made redundant before I even start!

Unfortunately no podium for the trackstanding. Did get the Red Bull girl's phone number, but not sure if that was the price for 3rd

The scene setting at the start - the father ranting- was terribly laboured - it could have been cut to about 30 seconds.
