NGL, it's quite easy to avoid Oxford St. I mean, who on earth wants to ride through iPeds and their zombie ilk? I say let it go.
Poor Tom, forever remembered for one Code Brown.
This is exactly the sort of company we should be shouting about in the cycling press. UK based, great products at reasonable prices. This is another good looking bike with a decent spec that looks a lot of fun.
Farage has said at least one thing that is true "Never trust a tory. I'll repeat that, NEVER trust a tory." And he was right, which is why Refuk is full of ex-tories.
@mdavidford while it can, I think of nonsense as more of a "pick your own" (hence bunch-servings) affair rather than BS, which is more like to arrive by itself in a steaming mess, or pile/heap.
I thought nonsense came in piles, rather than bunches.
@EastLondonCyclingNut I wouldn't be keen to find non-cyclists in my shoes - there wouldn't be room, even though they're fairly "walking-friendly" SPD ones. Not sure if public hire bikes change much. But I do think ultimately things only change when there's a significant fraction of the population with "skin in the game" - either because they cycle regularly themselves or more likely because they know their friends and *children* / other relatives do...
"Christie continued to follow the victim and drove the van into the back wheel of the bike."
Generally, I get off my bike and walk in pedestrianised areas. Cyclists and pedestrians in close proximity do not mix well. I'd be pretty pissed off if cars decided it was okay to use a cycle lane because they didn't want to use an alternative, legal route.
@EastLondonCyclingNut I'm going for 'very suspicious' on this one- Trollfinder General Is this the increased sympathy where the driver attacks the cyclist causing serious injuries and is rewarded with the joke non-custodial sentence; or where the driver murders the cyclist in the most horrible manner and the Shyster Defence Barrister offers the mitigation that 'he didn't intend to do it and expresses remorse'?

Huuh! Cumulonimbus!

I did the Tour de Yorkshire
I did the Tour de Yorkshire sportive on Sunday and it was fantastic. The engineer for the Otley Chevin road must have been a sadist – it has a near constant grade of 10% on a 1.5km straight road.

Urr…even the thought of the TdY sportive sends shivers down my spine. Did the first one a few years ago, and I’m still drying out! I suspect the weather was a tad better this year.
Personally, I went to Ilkley to see Stage 2 on friday (parked in Skipton, rode to Ilkley and back), rode up Cow and Calf, watched the womens race come in, couldn’t be bothered to wait 5+ hours for the men, went home again.
Fit new wheels and cassette and tubeless tyres to best bike, then spent the next two hour ride fiddling with gears and realising I should have replaced the chain as well – very frustrating. Fit new chain after ride, shifts fine now!
