Any question answered...

If belm is written on a forum and Jeez isn't around to see it, was it really typed?

Want to do SDW in not too distant future - train from Eastbourne to Winchester via Clapham junction needed to get from car to start. Anyone know of bike carrying arrangements on those lines plus how secure?

Eastbourne to clapham junction is southern one part of the train has the seats removed for a toilet and then opposite is an empty space for a bike or a wheelchair, sit right by your bike and don't go to sleep, ride on that train should take an hour and a half or so. When you go to get on the doors you want will have a red part on them and also some wheelchair symbols.

Sorry, I don't know much about the others.

Probably no measurable difference in either performance or durability. You can use the SM-BB9000 with FC-6800 cranks and, presumably, vice versa

Why did this guy get banned from driving a car for a year?

Wanton and furious driving?

Dunno, getting punished is right but a driving ban is very strange.

Harder to enforce a cycling ban, and a driving ban is considered more severe.
I suppose...

unbelievable, the law is an ass
The consequences of doing the same thing in a car are routinely exonerated but when done on a bike all sorts of retribution are applied
Astonishing that a driving ban is applied to a cycling offence
I think this is a case for a judicial review
my MP will be hearing from me

It would be interesting to research the history behind this. While the 1861 law was probably intended to apply in the main to the driving of (horse-drawn) carriages, the first cycling ban, against draisines, not more modern ordinary or safety bicycles, was apparently in London. This was because the earliest machines produced in the UK had no brakes and were mostly ridden on the footway, no doubt scaring people and smashing into them a lot. The inventor of the bicycle, Karl Drais, only added the brake (which he invented) after a few months of trials on the road, by which time drawings without the brake had already reached London and bikes were being produced without them. Even when he added the brake later, it was hidden behind the rider's leg in his illustration.

You can see the brake cord going to the brake (on the rear wheel), but not the brake.

There seems to be this legislative tradition that you can still punish a 'carriage driver' (and bicycles are considered carriages for this purpose) according to this legislation, but the laws setting a framework for the much more powerful later motorised carriages don't seem to grip as well, e.g. in terms of what you need for a conviction etc. Lawyers please correct me if that's nonsense. I'm not aware of any books on the history. Somebody should write one.

The consequences of doing the same thing in a car are routinely exonerated...
I get your point at a general level, but I've only once ever seen a car mount the pavement for the purpose of running a red light and then drive at speed round a blind corner (this is Italy, my friend...).

Edit: The cyclist in question did something bad, and deserves to be punished. I don't see why his case deserves a JR - it is the other cases you refer to (motorists being exonerated when they have killed another person) that the UK's legal system should revisit.

The offence that he (rather stupidly - he was insanely poorly represented) pleaded guilty to is one that can have a sentence of a driving ban, irrespective of the fact that he was on a bicycle.

Actual cycling offences cannot result in a driving ban, or points, except for going equipped to steal (while riding a bicycle).

I don't see why his case deserves a JR

Because it's unlikely that the 1861 Offences Against the Person Act allows for suspension of a driving licence as a punishment upon conviction. It could be that some Road Traffic Act incorporates a list of offences under other Acts which can lead to suspension of a licence, or the rider might have been convicted of a separate offence under a Road Traffic Act which has similar punishments available, so the answer would be to see the full details of the case, not a newspaper article.

Section 28 of the Road Safety Act 2006 permits endorsement / disqualification for Furious Driving, per the 1861 Act, with the schedule defined in the 1988 Road Traffic Offenders Act.
