I’m still in shock after seeing this in the morning. What a prize plonker.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. [emoji1]

Unfortunately it is an A road so it’s perfectly legal for the spandex clown to be there. Alas it’s also the season for them to be organising the time trials on major A roads, and many of you know that there has been several fatalities involving cyclists on the major A roads

I struggle with this tbh. On one hand I hate the thought of infringing personal freedoms as much as I hate the nanny state interfering with our lives, but on the other hand sometimes people need to be saved from themselves. I know it’s not illegal for these cyclists to race up and down the A1 or wherever in the same way that it’s not illegal for me to take a bath with an electric fire balanced on the side of the bathtub. Both not illegal, but both definitely inadvisable

Yeah I’m well aware u can cycle on duel carriageways.
but come on you would need to be a raving lunatic to cycle on the hard shoulder up that part of the road.

But they can so they will and then cry when they get run down - seems cyclists are missing a very important trait - COMMON SCENSE

Cyclists had to be banned from a certain part of the A19 (around Wolviston) because of how many fatalities there had been. Yet cyclists continue to take their lives into their own hands on other parts of this very busy road:
"Cyclist who died after early hours collision on A19 named as his inquest is opened
Derek Winter, the senior coroner for the City of Sunderland, said the 26-year-old had been a pedal cyclist on the A19 northbound, between the A183 Chester Road and the A1231, when the crash happened 200 metres from the turn off at North Hylton.
The incident happened at 1.35am on Thursday, May 13, and Mr Oxberry died at Sunderland Royal Hospital."
I also saw a while back someone riding a push bike up the slip road at j26 of the M1 onto hard shoulder and through roadworks crew who were not happy with the plonker riding at them.
Nothing surprises me anymore.
I was involved in cycle sport getting on for 50 years ago. A couple of lads that I knew were killed on the dual carriageway between Perth and Dundee. The time trials arent really races, they are billed as events this makes them legal on our roads. We should all drive and ride sensibly, I avoid riding on the main roads nowadays.
Reminds me of my own video from a few years ago. I used to do silly commentaries when going over bridges in Scotland when I would wedge my phone against the windscreen and do a daft voice. Here’s my Billy Conolly…and yes…I did pick up the phone to swing it about!!
