Live blog: Thrilling end to Tour de Yorkshire opener, bicycle mugger chased down, new protein chocolate brand sounds unappetising and more

Cycling in Paris this evening, many bikes and escooters don't take any notice of the red lights. A number of bikes do stop, but not many.

@ChrisA and you should approach believing they might step out, so be ready to stop.

@Terry Hutt Ah you've spoiled it now, I was enjoying picturing...

@mdavidford I live in the mountains of Southern California. I attached my home commute for your entertainment.

No, I didn't think you were suggesting that. And I feel the same on a bike sometimes. Particularly when the sun is low and I hear cars braking late behind me.

Having watched a couple of episodes of Police, Camera, Action. I'm eagerly awaiting the Police call to close the M62.

@Mr Blackbird I'm not suggesting they shouldn't be there at all, merely that as a single cyclist at the edge of the road travelling between 20-30kph I still feel vulnerable. I would not feel comfortable on a horse at all.

@mjvande@pacbell.net You... 'saw'? : )

This is our local petrol station's prices today. If anything they're going to get a lot worse. Diesel is forecast to hit the £2 mark very soon. I'd be very surprised if we don't see refinery blockades like those in 2000. Let's see how anti-cycling they feel if that happens.
