    Was listening to a news piece

    Was listening to a news piece on the flood rescuers. They use poles to find if a manhole cover has been pushed up and out, so hitting that manhole on your bike would have an unplesant outcome as a minimum.

    According to the twitter replies this is simply

    It’s called problem solving.”

    It’s called initiative something the majority of cyclists don’t have.”

    You just reminded me of when
    You just reminded me of when I went out after the snow and ice had gone. There was still quite a lot of grit and salt from the gritter lorries and my chain picked up a lot. I had to clean it twice but I couldn’t get rid of it and I’d end up with this orange sheen sheen everywhere.
    Had to replace the chain and clean the sprockets again.
    Next time wait for a good bit of rain to wash all the crap off the roads.

    Now I’m older and more risk
    Now I’m older and more risk averse I do check for winds. Tend to get a lot of SW wind and on an nsl road with lots of gaps in trees and hedges, it is too risky going north to south and back.

    Usually see photos when there are floods of a brave cyclist going through floodwater.
    Really stupid idea : apart from the sewage, you’ll ruin your drivetrain and BB, you have no idea if you will hit a pothole, kerb, then there could be all sorts of debris coming towards you.

    No ban

    No ban

    Speaking through a Polish interpreter, Pociecha, of George Pope Close, Norwich, pleaded guilty to being drunk in charge of a child and being in charge of a vehicle with an alcohol level above the limit.

    Even a week or a fortnight ban would have been a useful deterent.
