  • Does anybody have an opinion on why they think that the UK won't heavily restrict recreational cycling in the same way that Italy, France and Spain has? All three of them started with the same guidelines as the UK, and all three of them decided to take further action because of a perception that cyclists were taking the piss despite it being unlikely that it caused any problems.
