Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.

Kudos to Michael Ellis MP for being so positive, and riding without a helmet, but we've had all the nice words a thousand times, and they don't build no cycle routes. Either find the money or shut up. It shouldn't be too difficult, if the government can spend billions on roads and HS2 with no economic case, surely it's going to be amazingly easy to find the money to support projects with twenty times those?
Why does when the HGV started its turn have any relevance? It crossed the line on red (you can see frame by frame). It is not ok to run lights on a motor vehicle, regardless of where you start the turn. Amber and red are both stop signals.
At least two vehicles appeared to go through that cycle priority junction on red including an HGV.
The HGV started to turn on green, it's just obviously slow to get through (and it's hard to tell sped up).
