Shock news : local media
Shock news : local media outlet “tries to get people interested in content”. Local journalism is dying on is feet. People do grumble about the “Dear Sir, isn’t the traffic terrible, it’s must all be cyclists’ fault” letters, but if it sells, then it must count for something. Cycling on the prom seems to have settled down now – times like this help put that issue into perspective.
I wonder if one could lay on a seasonal park & ride big enough to handle that lot? Wouldn’t everyone complain that disabled drivers’ interests would be compromised? You’d need some kind of open-sided tourist tram type of arrangement at the moment. I have seen talk of road blocks, which for Bournemouth, bounded on two sides by river and with finite crossing-points, could be done, if you’d a mind to.
I guess we’ll all be loading-up the car, ready for round 2 today.

I like the SKS models that strap to the seat post – good for switching between bikes.
insurance against theft?
insurance against theft? “Third party” liability? The point about legal redress is important and there may well be something in your house insurance about it.
When I neeeded its services to take action again the driver that knocked me off in 2007, I contacted the helpline that came with my house insurance – it turned out just to be a law firm that took cases on contingent liability i.e. “no win, no fee”. Many policy-holders pay a premium for “family law protection” or similar and I’m not sure whether there is anything more to it than that in reality.
“Now that cycle lanes are being placed on main thoroughfares within the city, cyclists are now sharing road space with all types of traffic; for example, heavy goods vehicles. (The Avenue is a good example)
This makes cycling ever more dangerous; the number of cyclists killed or injured by lorries is a national issue.”
oh, yes Mr Nobbie, I’m sure you care very much about cyclists’ we’ll-being – when you’re not tying yourself up in self-contradictions.

If either bike was Italian thread – unlikely, despite the provenance – both cups would be on a “normal” right-hand thread. (On the British Standard, right-hand side is left-hand thread.)
