@lesterama Thats even better.
@qwerty360 Thanks for this info. I've had two failure to identify in my reporting "career". One got away with it completely as it was a hire car through two different companies and they ran out of time to prosecute and one got points and a fine. The latter was NMOTD 946. I won't put a link in or you may never see this comment. If I've had two it must be quite common occurrence. Yet another loophole condoned by the legal system for the well off and unscrupulous.
@stulemanski wrote It depends on the situation but generally I prefer to stay on my bike as it takes up less room than walking by the side of it with pedals ready to catch the ankles of other pedestrians. If it's a no cycling area then it's get off and walk unless it is completely deserted.

This is exactly the sort of company we should be shouting about in the cycling press. UK based, great products at reasonable prices. This is another good looking bike with a decent spec that looks a lot of fun.
Farage has said at least one thing that is true "Never trust a tory. I'll repeat that, NEVER trust a tory." And he was right, which is why Refuk is full of ex-tories.
@mdavidford while it can, I think of nonsense as more of a "pick your own" (hence bunch-servings) affair rather than BS, which is more like to arrive by itself in a steaming mess, or pile/heap.

It would appear that the
It would appear that the Telegraph is more out of touch than even I imagined. Of course, their readership doesn’t ride bikes, they play tennis, cricket and support football from the comfort of the couch. Which raises the rather interesting question of why they are offering a bike as a prize.
And he is Welsh.
