Live updates from the court for sentencing in the Michael Mullins case, by the local newspaper . Lots of previous motoring convictions. https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/26690352.driver-sentenced-murder-michael-mullins/

Parser error. Not necessarily. It's entirely possible that all those instances were made up... er, I mean, reported, by the same three people.

In fairness, @Borisface says in their other comment that they've ridden steel a lot. It's just aluminium that they have an inexplicable problem with.

I love Exposure lights, but that price is nuts

I considered the Strada SB because I think 2000 lumens is right for myself and my commuting. The SB is a boosted RS. They are both crazy expensive even compared to their own lights ... the 2000 lumen Diablo is 240EUR or the 3850 lumen Toro is 395 EUR vs the 2000 lumen Strada SB at 415EUR. Plus import to EU. I will not buy the Strada, but am considering the Toro - can do double duty as a commuter light and MTB light. I wish the Strada came in a dumb 2000 lumen version. I don't think 2000 lumen is so bright to justify the beam dipping. I just want a super well made light with easy button operation. I have the Axis Mk10 and the button operation is not intuitive. The Axis is also how I know that 1300 lumens is not enough for my commuting. It's great for road biking when there will be tunnels and chance of riding before or after sunset.

Deleted my comments because Road.cc have removed the offending poster from the article. I hope people have learned from this that using gen AI for marketing is a bad idea. Human creatives first!

It looks like the anti-cyclists in Spalding are making up the evidence.

@Pub bike Came here to say just that. The frameset isn’t that expensive, similar to what I paid for my Condor Italia RC a few years ago. Same sort of Dedaccia tubing too! I built mine up with ‘older’ Dura-Ace, aero wheels and managed to get it all for around £3.5k and it weighs less than 8kg (in a size 61!). So yes you can spend loadsa money on an aluminum bike, but you can also build it up how you like for a lot less and still have a great bike.

This BBC article has some further details on what happened that day, including what Gabriele Debotte's (the passenger) did and did not do. It is _absolutely horrific_ what Richardson did to poor Michael Mullins. Unfathomable. Richardson must be an absolute sociopath. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmde86918z3ro

@Borisface No one questioned your experience or knowledge. It's irrelevant, because your comment doesn't show any sign of that experience or knowledge.
