like it that the Indie is pro cycling. But a role call of the dead looks like cycling is really dangerous. Most people who see that front page will read "danger" which is a shame. In fainess they make the point about relative safety in the article but your average Daily Mail reader will only ever see the front page as they scan the rack in the morning. A role call of dead peds or car pasengers would run to many pages... "Why do we tolerate it?". I dislike it when the press feel the need to sensationalise a serious issue but "if it bleeds, it leads", I guess.
