Ekoi release updated version of their Corsa Light Evo helmet

The judiciary have been quite happy handing out near maximum prison sentences to otherwise peaceful climate protestors who cause the closure of roads yet hand out very limited ones who to those that cause real life long harm and virtually nothing to those that cause vastly greater delay and disruption through their utterly irresponsible driving.

@yodhrin To be fair to UK police, and I know this certainly wouldn't apply in every case, the one time I did make a complaint against police driving, for pulling away from a stop straight in front of me without any indication, I had the superintendent of Brixton police station on the phone within 24 hours apologising and offering to send the officer round to make an apology in person and saying they would get retraining in driving skills (it's actually somewhere on this site but it was a while ago and the search engine doesn't seem to go that far back). Additionally, when I made a complaint against an officer in Battersea Park who not only accused me of swearing at a pedestrian, which I hadn't, but who was also extremely aggressive to me and rude to my wife, I again received a very swift response explaining that the officer had been disciplined, a note placed on his record, warned as to his future behaviour and ordered to undergo retraining, so my experience in this respect has been entirely positive. I should point out that in both instances I had irrefutable camera evidence of my claims, I do realise that if it was just my word against theirs, as it seems to be in the case above, the outcomes might have been significantly different.

* 'processing' > 'proceeding'

I don't think it does - just processing on without regard to the circumstances. Replace it with 'pushing' if you like - makes no difference to the point. From what I can see in the video, he'd completed the turn and had sufficient opportunity to slow - it wouldn't have taken much of an adjustment.

@Backladder Under the new hierarchy of road users we cyclists have a duty of care to pedestrians. In this instance the duty of care amounts to two things. First avoid the pedestrian. Tick. Secondly point out the error of their ways to try to improve their safety in future. Tick.

There are several things on this planet, that when I look at them, my skill crawls and bile salivates in my mouth; and Michael Gove is one of them. So perhaps my thoughts on this are biased. And I shall keep them to myself.

As someone who regularly unleashes the fruitier sections of his vocabulary on drivers who do things that put me at risk of injury or worse, I have to say I agree with Jack here, the misdemeanour is not sufficiently egregious to justify the aggression. In this situation, which one faces numerous times in a day cycling in London, I find a simple "I think you'll find it's actually my light, chap/madam" suffices and nine times out of ten it elicits a sheepish apology. If the pedestrian wants to up the ante by giving back I'm quite prepared to respond in kind, but it's not a situation that requires such immediate aggression. That said it is Michael Gove so some forms of aggression would be justified, if the cyclist had said, "Exports are down 14% and we didn't even have a small boats problem before Brexit, you idiot" I'd cheer him on.

@rjfrussell Well, now you mention it, the sound of fans cheering you on coming through the speakers would sometimes be quite nice ;-)

Generic …like virtually all new carbon road and gravel bikes. …it no longer looks like a Bianchi, nor a Specialissima. Mainstreaming in the bike industry is rife, as if everyone needs an aero race bike, despite the fact that 90% of customers don’t. …Small frame makers rejoice! Carbon is on its way out.

@mdavidford Barreling suggests he was travelling at speed whereas he had just started riding and was making a turn so his balance might not have been good enough to have slowed and adjusted his line.
