maybe there's a lesson here for others in the same situation - if you lend a bike, don't lend locks with it. in the end, any lock can be cut in five minutes, if the thief is determined - so the protection is mostly illusory... but many people don't know that - and they'll put their trust in something like a fahgeddaboutit, believing it to be totally secure...

best (and most egalitarian) way to encourage cycling (to work and otherwise) is to zero-rate vat on bikes and accessories. cyclescheme was over-complex and a bit of a gift to those with full-time jobs and high salaries...

A red light is a red light - the law says stop, so you stop.

If you're an anarchistical (new word, go me!) type who wants to play by your own fucking rules don't moan when you get a £30fp

Maybe we should remove all traffic laws and then see how safe we are on the roads

simon jenkins is wrong about almost everything. but maybe not this...

eh, yes, the road beneath the mont saint victoire is beautiful too.....

well, the calanques are beautiful... some - morgiou, sormiou - have roads leading into them that are often closed to cars in summer...

is it up on immobilise.com?

why is it annoying? has it stopped you polishing your fence?

for those that drop by brick lane on a sunday morning - perhaps it's possible to take a couple of discrete pictures of anything obviously stolen, and stick them up on here?

that junction is a little confusing - the way navarro road is one way in two different directions from the junction, with contraflow cycle lanes on different sides of the road. and in latvia they drive on the right. if she was used to driving/cycling there, and only came here in june, and had just started cycling here, i suspect it was just enough contradictory information to let her look left, out of habit, rather than right, at the junction.. hope she pulls through...

what's with all these contador/schleck love-ins, anyway? let's have a bit of unadulterated rivalry and hatred. does wonders for the competitive spirit....

perhaps. but jacques isn't doing a cover....

YouTube- Shirley Bassey - IF YOU GO AWAY

on the other hand - contador lost time from someone else's fall on the cobbles. schleck lost time from the chain. as far as winning by racing is concerned, it's about even..

looked to me like schleck had the edge on contador just before the chain came off... contador couldn't afford to wait...
