I see there's a 'die-in' at E&C this Wednesday, as I found out when a leaflet was thrust into my unwelcoming hand at the traffic lights on Friday. I feel very uneasy about a 'die-in'; I know it makes for a good photo-op (going on the evidence of the Addison Lee one), but I find it slightly in bad taste that a bunch of cyclists voluntarily assume the position of a stricken cyclist, whilst perfectly able to get up again and carry on like nothing happened, as opposed to genuine victims who never had that luxury.
Of course I support any action, but I won't be on the floor for this one.
