"With all the modern costs, it was getting harder": Leisure Lakes Bikes downsizes Cheltenham branch after 25 years in familiar town centre store
Leisure Lakes Bikes’ Cheltenham store has moved, the retailer leaving its previous premises [above] where it has operated since 2000, moving inside a Go Outdoors Express nearby.
Manager Ian Davis told Gloucestershire news site Punchl!ne it’s a move to “streamline” the business and run things “a little bit leaner”.
“With all the modern costs, it was getting harder,” he explained. “We were doing good business there but the cost of running it there was increasing. We can run it at the new place a little bit leaner.
“People have an attachment to that location. I worked there before it was Leisure Lakes, in the 90s when it was Bike Tech. But we have to move with the times, unfortunately. It’s put us in a good position, moving forward. We’re here to help people out and give them what they want.”
The classiest indoor training set-up we've ever seen: riding your steel Peugeot in a wine cellar
If only Clive were over in a certain other French wine region, not the Loire Valley, then we could officially dub this a Champagne cave… I’ll get my coat…

A corker of a find in the ‘Steel is Real’ Facebook page, Clive taking winter training up a notch. How he gets any riding done is a mystery to me, but apparently the wine cave is the “perfect temperature and view” to keep the legs turning.

Parents and campaigners call for more school streets and action on "dangerous SUVs"
Parents and campaigners from Solve the School Run and Clean Cities are trying to raise awareness of the road dangers children face every day simply for trying to get to school. They’ve called for all councillors in London to commit to a ‘Safer Streets for Kids’ manifesto, including closures of streets around schools at drop off and pick up time, as well as measures to discourage driving and “dangerous SUVs”.
Research from Solve the School Run suggests on average 443 children are injured on their way to and from London schools each year, with 16 per cent of these serious or fatal injuries.
Solve the School Run says children “are disproportionately at risk if they walk or cycle to school”, with children walking and cycling to school in London making up 57 per cent of all school run journeys whilst making up 78 per cent of school run casualties.
“This demonstrates the need for councils to take much more action to protect children as they make their way to school, particularly given that almost all children will need to walk, for at least some of their journey,” the campaign group says.
“I screamed but by the time she realised what she’d done she had driven over the front wheel of Ben’s bike”
Katy Heald, a parent whose four-year-old son Ben was almost crushed by the driver of an SUV, has joined the campaign groups in asking for “action to discourage SUVs with higher parking charges” due to the vehicles’ high danger to children.
“We were at a traffic light crossing outside our local station,” Katy recalled. “The traffic was nose to tail, as it often is at the end of the school day, and an SUV had stopped just over the stop line. When the green man came on my four-year-old, Ben, went forwards on his balance bike while I followed with my toddler in the buggy. The traffic beyond the crossing shifted forward and the driver of the SUV – rather than observe the red light and green man, or even check the crossing was clear – moved with it.
“I screamed but by the time she realised what she’d done she had driven over the front wheel of Ben’s bike. The wheel and front fork of his bike were crushed, which tells you how close the wheel was to his leg. The driver had no idea that he was even there until his bike was under her car as the bonnet was so high, and we saw no evidence of the automatic braking or collision avoidance systems that car manufacturers talk about.
“Ben was distraught and so was the driver, who had her own kids in the back of the car. We need safer streets all the time, but particularly during the school run, when thousands of children are walking and cycling on the streets at the same time as thousands of cars are on the roads.”
As part of the Safer Streets for Kids manifesto, councils are being asked to sign up to a commitment to:
-
An effective school street for every school – a school street is when the road by a school is closed to traffic during the hours of school drop off and pick up, keeping children safe.
-
Access to a cargo bike for every family – this could be through subsidies, secure bike parking options or bike share schemes. Cargo bikes are (typically) e-bikes and carry children within them.
-
Reallocate kerb space in a child-friendly way – more double yellow lines and crossing points to improve sightlines, so children can see and be seen, along with parking tariffs to discourage SUVs and carspreading.
“We wanted to shine a light on the very real danger that children face getting to school. As parents we see and feel it every school day. We wanted to turn that experience into numbers that councils can understand, to demonstrate the need for immediate action,” said Claire McDonald, co-founder of Solve The School Run.

Yoga and The Rest is History podcasts... Mark Cavendish's retirement routine
What does a retired Mark Cavendish get up to these days? Well, speaking to the Standard, Cav says it’s running, yoga and history podcasts (plus as much riding as he can get away with, of course).
The school run might be one of his new favourite times of the day, but Cav would still “ride all day, if I can, especially with friends”, although the “thought of structured training doesn’t appeal any more unless I have a specific goal”.
“I’ve taken up running and even completed a marathon recently, which helped give me a new focus,” he explained. “And I’ve started doing an online yoga class. It’s been unexpectedly meditative — for that hour, the rest of the world disappears. It took time to embrace, but now I really feel the benefits. It’s not just physical; it’s a shift in awareness too.”
Cav also explained how podcasts have become a big part of his day and he loves The Rest is History or A Short History Of when on the move, travelling to an event or out walking. “I’ve always been drawn to storytelling and learning in bite-size ways,” he said.
Can’t say I’d mind listening to podcasts and doing yoga all day. Maybe not all day… but you get what I mean.

Tony Martin joins the pro cycling run club
Tony Martin is the latest pro/former pro to get his trainers on and clock an impressive time at a running event. In the case of the German it was a 1:24 half marathon.
“My first competition in four years and my first half marathon ever,” he said. “21 km in 1:24h… not bad for me, but so far from the top. It was really fun, but it was also incredibly tough and painful. Since last weekend, I have so much more respect for the performance of runners and triathletes. Next year I’ll be back to improve my time.”
Marcel Kittel was on hand with a handy tip for next time, telling Martin: “Next time you’ll listen to hardstyle from the Netherlands instead of children’s audiobooks, and you’ll run as fast as Tom Dumoulin.”
It has been a bumper off-season for running, Mathieu van der Poel stealing the headlines with his 33-minute 10km the other week. Greg Van Avermaet clocked a 1.21:31 half marathon, although that comes with the caveat that it came at the end of a triathlon, the Belgian winning his age group at the Ironman world championship.
British rider Lewis Askey is quite quick too, running a 1:12 at the Stroud half marathon earlier in the autumn.

Do not scratch your eyes... work to begin on Irish velodrome (finally)
Ryan’s in absolute disbelief, the days of the Irish track team having to travel to Mallorca to train in a velodrome might be coming to an end. RTE has this afternoon reported construction on a national velodrome at the Sport Ireland Campus in Abbotstown is set to begin early next year.
It will apparently cost between €50-100m, the news coming as Irish cycling enjoys something of a boom in the professional ranks. Ben Healy, of course, won a stage and wore the yellow jersey at the Tour de France this summer, while Lara Gillespie has impressed on the road too and took a historic gold at the recent Track World Championships in Chile.
The Irish government hopes to build on the success, a national velodrome hopefully helping the next generation of Irish cycling stars reach their potential.

Council secures funding for £14m town centre overhaul... but fuming locals shoot down "bicycle-obsessed council" because plan includes a cycle lane
Up in Harrogate, North Yorkshire Council was pleased to announce it would be investing in the town centre having won £38m of investment from central government’s Transforming Cities Fund (TCF). Alongside other investment in Skipton and Selby, around £14.3m of that is to be used “improving Harrogate town centre [by] providing better access to public transport, and ensuring people are connected to economic and educational opportunities”. Positive news? Well, apparently not, according to residents on Facebook…
You’ve probably worked out how these sort of things go by now, but North Yorkshire Council has been accused of being “bicycle obsessed” because there’s a major new cycle lane included in the plans.
It is worth pointing out there were also some concerns about if there could be more greenery in the plans, but for many the big issue was, to quote one local, “Cycle lanes, cycle lanes, cycle lanes?!?!?”
As this funding is specifically from the TCF the council clearly has to abide by that and can’t just put the £14m towards some of the more day-to-day local authority service issues that some residents suggested would be a better destination for the money. Sorry, got distracted there, back to the fury that sight of a cycle lane causes.
“Bicycle obsessed council …. There aren’t any!” John Scott said.
“Artists impression — who’s ever seen three cyclists on Station Parade?!” Chrissy Fincham added, a comment which… some might argue is… well… perhaps the point of providing a safe, protected route so people can.
Gary Fitzsimmons commented: “Cycle lanes, cycle lanes, cycle lanes?!?!? Why not build a proper hub that links to bus and train stations together, the one that was promised over 20 years ago! The bridge across to the car park from the Victoria Centre was meant to be part of it, hence the eyesore that has been left there looking like a temporary rig! Wrong priorities!!”
“That money would be better spent lowering business rates to actually help store owners, a cycle path will do nothing,” Neal King said.
We’ll give the last ranty comment to Steve Lilley: “Have the powers that be carried out a survey to see the flow of cyclists who use that section of road. I think not because they don’t exist. I have not seen one cyclist on that section. What a complete waste of money.”
It’s fairly standard for discourse around these sort of town centre projects to be dominated by cycle lane complaints, even if the Harrogate scheme also includes improved traffic signals, a bus lane, new paving on pedestrian areas, and cycle parking at the station. There will also be traffic-signal improvements at junctions on the A61.
Work is set to begin in the New Year to avoid disruption over the festive period and the scheme is due be completed in autumn 2027.
“The aims of the programme are to provide more accessible, affordable and attractive greener transport options, connect people to employment and educational opportunities, and create happier and healthier communities,” the council explained.
Executive member for highways and transport, Cllr Malcolm Taylor, added: “The scheme has been in the making for around five years, with several rounds of consultation and engagement to produce the final designs. We have maintained our commitment to delivering the scheme, which will be key in promoting sustainable travel and public transport options. The town centre will become more visibly appealing, ultimately driving economic prosperity through improved access to employment and future investment.”

In his closing speech to jurors on Tuesday, Jaime Hamilton KC, defending, said: "You are likely to hold Simon Richardson in contempt. That contempt may well manifest itself in a loathing of Simon Richardson and, in fairness, you are probably right to. Because it is right that we acknowledge it was the actions of Simon Richardson that led to the death of Michael Mullins. Not only is he responsible for the death of Michael Mullins, he acted in the most selfish of ways with one thought in his mind – himself. But that does not make him guilty of the homicide offences on this indictment." (emphasis mine) what a piece of shit.
@mctrials23 yeah ... but that's when we look at places like car parks and conclude that in fact 10 or even 5mph does in fact make a lot of sense!
@Mr Blackbird where can I find photos of this study? Asking for a friend.
@Gd29 I was waiting for the classic "why don't we just ban driving completely by reducing the speed limit to 5mph or 0!" argument and here it is. The statistics are very clear on the benefits of reducing the speed limit from 30-20mph. It doesn't remove bad driving but it mitigates the damage. It also makes fuck all difference to journey times. Everything with driving is risk vs reward. Sure, dropping it to 10mph would save a lot more people but it would make travel by car ridiculous and have minimal benefit vs 20mph. The reward wouldn't be worth the cost.
@Gd29 "Speed limits are an ineffective tool when the problem is drivers not driving in an appropriate manner for the conditions and environment. Those drivers weren’t following the speed limit and/or paying sufficient attention anyway!" That is a question, not an assertion. What are the relative numbers of drivers who are eg. "don't care" criminals who may never have taken a test or are happy to take life, how many are "criminally negligent" eg. may have a licence and not intend to break the law regardless, but just aren't fussed about basic safe driving (maybe regularly drive while tired, never slow down when conditions require), how many are just normal humans (who occasionally make unfathomable mistakes)? What are the relative rates of collisions? What are the casualty outcomes? What effect does simply changing a number on a sign have? If any, why? (There's the psychological "anchoring effect", if 70% of people *are* below the limit does that slow down others, do the "don't cares" maybe just overtake dangerously (but would they anyway? ) ) etc. Reduced speed is a mitigation in that it leads to better outcomes in collisions, that's a known I believe. IIRC there's also agreement that it can mean that fewer collisions happen as there's more time to react. "If that is the problem and you don’t deal with it, but you want to keep reducing injuries/fatalities, you have to keep dropping speed limits until you prohibit road use entirely" "If" (plus as noted other safety measures are available)
@Rendel Harris - I think that driver must live near me.
@Gd29 it's good to "point out potential abuse of stats - and for "keeping it concise for the public" no doubt some measure of "lies, damn lies and statistics" applies. But unless you have your own analysis / evidence, this may sound like a "just asking questions!" rhetorical tactic.
@Gd29 exactly what variables / controlled experiments would suffice to convince you, and then how would you believe that would still hold in "real world" situations? We all know there are excellent ways to stop motoring-related KSIs - one being stop humans operating vehicles) but that isn't normally seen as realistic. Then there's another "remove the hazard" approach eg. completely isolate motorists from vulnerable road users (and "footways" alone might not be sufficient, as more people are killed there most years by drivers than eg. by cyclists in total, although that fact doesn't say much ). Though that by itself doesn't address motorists killing themselves / other motorists. Currently the UK - like many countries - is mostly doing a "remove the vulnerable road users" approach, partly by design but mostly indirectly by prioritising convenience for motoring (including journey time, which is seen to involve higher speeds).
Do you really need an AI tool to tell you that 80% of a cyclist's drag is the rider or that getting in a more streamlined position you'll reduce drag etc.? Fabulous for the professional riders who use this site but for the rest of us our money would be better spent on yoga or pilates classes to help you hold a more streamlined position in the first place.
Of course drivers need to be responsible and take care but we are in danger of getting a bit high and mighty when police raise issues like this. Since the clocks went back last weekend, I have been commuting home this week in the dark for the first time this year. I am gobsmacked by the number of cyclists I see who have no lights and no reflective gear, often with no helmets either. It's common sense to take precautions and we've got our head in the sand if we pretend all cyclists are taking appropriate steps to protect themselves and others.

Also – while it’s shown with a quantum of separation, what we need is properly separate “cycle paths, cycle paths, cycle paths”. As mentioned on the “but red light jumping threatens pedestrians” threads one of the benefits of a bit more separation is it can help pedestrians cross the path easily * AND facilitate movement by cyclists.

It’s rather like that famous piece of logic applied during World War II, isn’t it, when the planes were returning from raids with the majority of the bullet damage around the fuselage and so designers thought they should reinforce those parts until someone pointed out that those were the planes that were coming home, so the ones that weren’t coming home were the ones hit in the wings and tailplane and that was what needed reinforcing. Similarly, routes that are heavily used by cyclists are most likely to be the ones least in need of a cycle lane, and vice versa.

We had a similar horrifying experience on the school run, which involves crossing a four lane (20mph limit – honoured in the breach) road. Green man; started crossing. Three lanes stopped. Driver in the fourth lane went through at speed (not necessarily speeding, but not crawling traffic), missing our kid who was out ahead on a scooter by inches. And recently a driver failed to stop for me (and professed not to have seen me) on a zebra, despite oncoming traffic having stopped and me being half way across. Is it getting worse, or am I just getting older and more angry?

Everyone is in a rush, people speed constantly no matter where they are or what time of day it is because shockingly, despite drivers protestations, there isn’t a war against motorists, there is in fact almost 0 enforcement of the rules and you have to be very unlucky to get caught. Oh and more and more people are distracted by their phones while they drive.
As background, Harrogate
As background, Harrogate Station Gateway was supposed to be a sustainable travel scheme, but it is now largely about fancy traffic lights to get motor vehicles through the town centre as fast as possible.
The cycle infra has been reduced to what you see in the picture – a one-way cycle track along part of Station Parade.
Under current plans, it doesn’t take people both ways, and it abandons them on a busy dual carriageway with no further provision. If it gets built, it will need to be joined up to other facilities otherwise it will be no use.
I suppose it’s good that road.cc covers these issues, but I do object to the ‘ragebait’ approach they take. There will always be people on social media saying ignorant anti-cycling things, but I don’t need to hear about them on a cycling website.
Silly parents. Don’t they
Silly parents. Don’t they know that the path to safely getting your child to school is just to have the largest and heaviest SUV so that your little Tarquinnius is at no danger from anyone else.
You obviously have to embrace this lack of empathy or thought for anyone else though. Park as close to the school entrance as possible. Park over the pavement completely (you wouldn’t want to impede other cars…well…unless the choice is walking 5m or blocking the road). If you really want to embrace it, make sure that you drive like a dangerous cunt around the school as well.
Indeed.

If I still lived in Harrogate
If I still lived in Harrogate, which im glad to say I never would again, I would be totally dismayed at N.Yorks council’s actions. The obviously dont live in the town since the disolution of the Harrogate council decsions are made by people in Northallerton miles away.
One one hand, they pander to the people living in the south. The town desperately needs a bypass road and the sensible option would be close to where the rich NIMBYs live who constanlty shout down the idea. The place is one of the worst towns for getting about, road works and temp lights everywhere, there is zero thought into the town planning elsewhere. The cycle path plans are moronic. Ive said it before on here, cycing in the area around Harrogate is brilliant. You can find nice roads in every direction. But the town itself is horrendeous. Fun Fact: There are more SUV owners per capita in Harrogate than anywhere else outside London. Narrow twisting roads with terraced houses and a poorly designed town centre make getting about a chore. Cars block streets and its very narrow and cars still pass far too close.
I hate Harrogate with a passion. Sure, its a tourist area, but to live there is a nightmare. Kids trying to get to school have very few options except walk or car drop off. Busses dont run from the North yet all the senior schools are in the South. 3 of them in very close proximity. If I still lived there I wouldnt feel safe letting my kids cycle to school. So a cycle path should make sense right? Wrong! Where there already exists cycle paths they are pseudo parking spaces or so badly laid out they are a total joke. A few paths and pedestrian area in the town centre is too little too late.
