road.cc’s founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony’s journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website – the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc – finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ – which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he’d like to own a carbon bike one day.

RE: witnesses can't report crimes. I'm sure wtjs will be along with proof that even victims can't report crimes in Lancs if it's a road offence (and Police Scotland have arranged things similarly)... ... but isn't this all of a piece with the creeping "gosh this Op Snap seems to generate lots of work and our superiors have given us the nod that 'these are not the crimes you're looking for' in the current political climate" viewpoint?

@Bungle_52 While it may be true that stronger punishment may not affect the thoughts/actions of the worst offenders I would guess that their actions are based on the low likelihood of being caught (driving dangerously but without incident, as apposed to being caught after a fatal/serious collision). So if the odds of being caught when driving dangerously were significantly higher and the punishment strong enough (ie, actions that would fail a test actually lead to loss of licence, rather than just points and fine) then I would suspect that we'd all be safer.

I remember being in a car on the southbank once in maybe 2010 when one of these went past. Couldn’t move for about 15 minutes. It was glorious.

Talk about vested interests wanting to profiteer at the expense of their own ‘team’! Endless excuses for inflation and greed, growth capitalism at its best. Hello.

…but hang on, ‘professional purists’ don’t buy their own bikes! …so Giant is basically giving up on its core market in favour giving bikes to the sponsored elite? Bizarre.
