In the news

It seems he nuances it lateron, if the article is correct. He also acknowledges the lanes saved lives.

But it is true that now nothing seems to happen in London cycle-wise... maybe he's not aware of that but now you are stuck with "too fast" VS "nothing at all!" And that makes that remark pretty ill judged.

No doubt he's hammered on twitter atm about this :)

It seems that Transport for London remains a deeply dysfunctional organisation. The reason for the rush to complete major routes in 2013-16 was the abject failure of TfL to deliver on Boris's 2008 promise of cycle superhighways. They spread blue paint over main roads and junctions creating more danger. On the first version of superhighway 2 there were six cyclist deaths in about 3 years. In BoJo's 2nd term they had to rush and spend like crazy to cover up. Despite Lilli Matson's soothing comments TfL are yet to have a coherent strategy to enable a benign transport system in London.

I don’t think that’s a cyclist

That is @rpm

Lush getting a hammering on Facebook reviews because of its #spycops advert... Stunned to see one of this forum give them a one star review, stunned but not surprised... Gut feelings never lie...

That ducktonessticker chap? He seems to have stirred people up with the freaks comment. Or are you alluding to someone else. No one covered in glory.

Not serious

I wouldn't normally mind but someone's been shit stirring on one of the musician forums I'm on and my claws are fully out... Not getting notifications for that anymore so haven't seen what's happening...

I hate Facebook...

If it is, surely a simple letter to the club captain would prevent any further poor behaviour.

Perhaps but I'm wondering if this happened more often if people would be a bit more respectful to cyclists on the road!

Maybe they just got really bad soap?

Friend of my son, good footballer, in the middle of his GCSEs, nice boy - fucked up...

That's horrible Mark.
Really. It's the worst.
I'm really sorry.

Awful, really hope he pulls through...

Mixed reports at the moment, but it looks like he might be ok. We’re keeping our fingers crossed

Fingers crossed indeed. Let's hope he has a lucky escape.

Terrible.
wishing him all the best, hope he pulls through and wishes to his friends and family.

Ghastly news. Fingers crossed and all the best to him, his family and friends. I hope your son gets any support he needs.
