Suplest launches limited edition Fabian Cancellara shoe

Reply to hawkinspeter Can you give it a more descriptive url so I can imagine it better?

Thanks for raising this. I'm assuming they had a serious talk about visiting Saudi Arabia and went anyway. GCN wants to be respected, but this is the definition of sportswashing.

Regarding "[helmets are] good insurance if you topple over... and so are not without merit": Even that protection is exaggerated. In 50+ years of avid cycling, club membership, etc. I've had exactly one friend die from a bike crash. He was riding at slow speed when he came to a stop. He apparently failed to unclip, toppled sideways, hit his helmeted head and died of TBI. And let's keep in mind that far more pedestrians than cyclists die of TBI. And even more motorists, despite the "protection" afforded by a car's interior. So why is it that cyclists are the ones persecuted by helmet nannies?

Spot on with the explanation but hey Snooks doesn’t want facts to get in the way (I don’t ride hookless for the avoidance of doubt).

It does look deliberate, but also weirdly efficient, as though the rider was practiced at that particular move. Which make me believe it might have been unintentional after all. He still should have stopped, of course.

"According to the Mail, so-called 'two-wheeled terrors' have triggered speed cameras 1,200 times since 2023 across the UK, with 220 ‘bicycles’ caught breaking 30mph limits during that period." So, comparable to number of motorists committing speeding offenses on the 500m stretch of main road nearest my house last week. and the week before. and so on.

CyclingMickey is a white knight on two wheels who rights the wrongs done by motorists. One can only admire this level of dedication. Does he also teach self-defence moves for extreme situations like when cyclists are mugged at knifepoint?

When a petrol head states the obvious about everyday cycling, velosipedists may feel grateful.

Freeman was commenting in the Daily Heil. Says it all.

Absolutely! I have an "ebike" - but a UK legal one So the motor cuts out at 15.5 mph (it makes sense in kph!) and anything after that is just me pedalling a bike that is much heavier that an normal bike and with a motor adding drag so that won't happen. Even in a 20mph zone then I would be pushed to break the 20mph unless it was a steep downhill! Therefore, any "bike" exceeding a 30 mph speed limit is NOT an ebike it is a motorbike - no ifs or buts - it is a motorbike probably unregistered, no MOT, no plate, no insurance and mostly the ride is not licensed and is not wearing a helmet so the laws needed are there already and have been for many years
