Video: Cyclists do the Mannequin Challenge – and it’s pretty impressive

Fair point – not every bike lane is perfect. But in this case, it's the only safe way for cyclists from the heavily populated eastern districts of Exeter into the city centre. Have a look at a map of Exeter, and you can see that the main thoroughfares from the east are Topsham Road and Honiton Road/Fore St/Heavitree Road. Take it from me that these are not conducive to cycling. So Dryden Road and the E9 are a pretty well-placed and vital bit of infrastructure. The joining points aren't all done yet, which is a pain, but it's getting close to an actual strategic network, rather than random bits of bike path. Agreed that Exeter needs strategic planning on a complete cycling network, and the roads I mentioned above could easily fit bike lanes as well. E9 is overall not too bad – it links residential areas via quiet and safe (currently) routes to the city centre, passing several schools and the hospital, plus out-of-town offices on the eastern edge. But shoving cars back into this stretch of it is a real backward step, and the council officers' own report admits that it will be made unsafe enough that it will likely put people off cycling on it. Maybe there are a few bad bike routes out there, but this isn't one of them.

To all cycling fans and up and coming pro cyclists. That is what happens when you follow a Deliveroo moped.

I have already registered my cycle numberplate, ready for the day Farage ascends to power : Front Plate FR33M4N IS 4 CUNT Rear Plate F4R4G3 IS 4 W4NK4R

Yes. And some of those obscured number plates will be cloned.

The image you've used of a deliveroo rider could well be a legal bike. It's a geared ebike hub (which can't handle massive watts, due to plastic planetary gears). I'm not saying it's totally legal but it definitely could be. Anyone who can provide proof it is illegally modified is welcome to respond. Can't see a throttle or anything like that.

This is completely unacceptable. NSN Cycling Team just issued an apology and removed Watts from a race tomorrow. I wonder what was leading up to this incident. From my experience, sometimes a verbal provocation is very quiet and invisible. But nothing justifies this dangerous violence.

Mr Loo Pole. Famous for finding legal loopholes to excuse his clients on technical grounds. Fails to realise that speed limits are for motor vehicles. Cyclists are not breaking the speed limit, they are not motor vehicles. Simples.

Followed the wheel in front up the wrong road? Been there, done that, eh?

Calling somebody a C..t is a "nasty thing to do". No public order offence???

Fine knowledge. I'm still running late 90s xtr and early to mid 90s xt.
