Live blog: Close pass from Dublin bus, Froome’s crash during Giro practice run, Jonny Browlee spotted spectating at Tour de Yorkshire and more

@Bompton rider (I think we have run out of levels for a reply!) Indeed, crossing or no crossing, one should be mindful of pedestrians (& others) and expect the unexpected. Or in your case the expected. What has changed is the suggestion (in the HC) that you "should" stop if you believe they might wish to step out. That was, I think, understood in years gone by, with out being specifically highlighted.

I like the chain stay protector.

Cycling in Paris this evening, many bikes and escooters don't take any notice of the red lights. A number of bikes do stop, but not many.

@ChrisA and you should approach believing they might step out, so be ready to stop.

@Terry Hutt Ah you've spoiled it now, I was enjoying picturing...

@mdavidford I live in the mountains of Southern California. I attached my home commute for your entertainment.

No, I didn't think you were suggesting that. And I feel the same on a bike sometimes. Particularly when the sun is low and I hear cars braking late behind me.

Having watched a couple of episodes of Police, Camera, Action. I'm eagerly awaiting the Police call to close the M62.

@Mr Blackbird I'm not suggesting they shouldn't be there at all, merely that as a single cyclist at the edge of the road travelling between 20-30kph I still feel vulnerable. I would not feel comfortable on a horse at all.

@mjvande@pacbell.net You... 'saw'? : )
