if we're moving onto drink cycling :

http://www.londonfgss.com/thread16927.html

it's a pretty interesting study

bikes are mechanically propelled, it just so happens that the power come from your feet.

and also:
Section 30 Road Traffic Act 1988 says: "It is an offence for a person to ride a cycle on a road or other public place when unfit to ride through drink or drugs - that is to say - is under the influence of a drink or a drug to such an extent as to be incapable of having proper control of the cycle."

so you can get a bit drunk...

The Licensing Act 1872 makes it an offence to be drunk in charge of a bicycle (or any other vehicle or carriage, or cattle) on a highway or in a public place but this old law also forbids any public drunkenness - even in a pub - so is clearly never enforced.

i think they already do,
just noone follows them...

sweet =)

DAVE FOR PM !

woo hoo!
Hell Yeah!

make it illegal to cycle without brakes, lights

lights is already illegal,

£30 on the spot fine (it is an cambridge anyway)
and as for brakes in the bike shop that i work in, we (by law) have to sell bikes with brakes (both)

lol @ licenses

i was thinking nationwide,

could be some well known cycling figure, Chris Hoy even. they could be local (cambridge where i am needs one)
It's up to us

sorry guys, i was making up quotes for the photos on this blog:

some have appeared before

So, Guys & Gals.

What do you all think of having a minister for cycling,
do you think it would help us in our fight to actually rule the roads,
or just bring in a load of Health & Safety rules...

Discuss!

I should add that when I'm driving, I do prefer it when cyclists wear fluoro vests, I'm not sure if I spot them sooner, but I definitely *notice *them more.

+1 on both accounts

i like cyclists to be fluoro when i'm walking aswell
so i have time to put on my monkey mask & blades

the monkey has no answer =(

Do you think he'll come out for critical mass?

get a coupla people then...

why the fuck?
you ask the monkey

:)

Monkey says: Why the fuck not...

The more reflective gear, they have the worse they ride.

especially the ones with those orange and yellow waistcoats...

ah, fairenough...
it doesn't really help at the lights either...
people are just like "who's that tall geezer"
well, if i stopped they would be

I wish I was 6'6". I'd be all like, "stomp, stomp little people. Move out of my way." That would be so much cooler.

I'm 6'6", and it doesn't really help when someone lobs an apple core at you...

I don't think we could take on anyone , i thought it would be good to learn and see what we should aim for . Rather than evolve weird rules and strange habits like creatures on the Galapagos islands . Think it'll be a good way to pick up tips on how to improve quicker .

surely not, the closer to the hospital you are the less likely the suicide is to work!

Not if we ride into the operating theatre, and on to their scalpels & shit...

god i have a twisted mind

City it is =)

Off Hills road bridge

is that going off towards Addenbrookes, or the City centre? or along the train tracks...

towards Addenbrookes would be the best idea if it's mass suicide...
