+1,000,000 to this.

It is the same old nutty ramblings. I suspect our old forum polluter has just discovered Facebook (which means it is truly old hat now)

quite simple..a Facebook page setup to help make UK roads more safer to cycle on.

But there aren't any roads on Facebook.

Now I've read to page 3,you're my favourite deluded naive loony troll on here. Thanks for raising a smile

Compared to cycling on French, Dutch, German roads..cycling on Uk roads is dire, that`s what this campaign is about to get all fellow cyclists to support and change the governments stance on UK cyclists safety

Needs support to make it work , https://www.facebook.com/CyclistsForRightOfWayUk

Cycling is safer in many continental countries, it's true. Ten times safer in Denmark, for instance. But it's still not really dangerous in the UK, you have as much chance of being killed on a bicycle as winning the lottery. What happened to Mary Bowers is Godawful but The Times campaign seems to be:

"Cycling is great, WARNING- YOU MAY DIE!"

They seem to suffer from the politicians' urge:

"We must do something. This is something, let's do it!"

The HoC debate was far more level-headed, IMO.

Mmmm. This thread has everything that is great about the internet.

1. A really stupid OP
2. Noob-flaming
3. Grudges between long-standing posters
4. Foul-mouthed insults
5. The ROFL copter

I feel all warm inside.

Not quite I'm afraid. You missed out point 6...

I can't believe this got to 5 pages

This is going to be someone, as others have pointed out piggybacking onto the back of the Times campaign hoping to get this opportunist Facebook page to go viral. Once he has as many likes as he can he'll start pimping his cycling affiliate links hoping the targeted users buy stuff from them and he'll take his commission.

He's probably got 10 others set up about disliking immigrants, banning the X-Factor preventing Muslims banning Christmas and complaining about cyclists jumping red lights.

Hitler - there I've said it - think that makes the thread complete :twisted:

Sorry man - missed that - its the age you know

What part of Europe are we talking about here? Holland ? Bosnia ? Greece ?

If he's got one banning the X Factor sign me up

the mind boggles.. basically it`s a Facebook page set up to campaign to the UK government to make the UK roads more safer for cyclists by making car, van , lorry, bus drivers more aware of cyclists.

Hi CFROWUKC

Could you maybe post a link for that FB page?

"Basically"? Cool. So there's a more complicated aspect to all this as well.

I'm looking forward to learning about that too.

I think he's been too specific so far. He needs to think of the big picture, maybe dumb it down a bit for the masses.

without wishing to sound like I'm flogging a dead horse here, but shouldn't that be "dumb and dumber"?

What more is there to learn beyond this "basic" description, I wonder? Now we know:

Wow! He's (I'm assuming its a he) posted a link to someone elses video.

Since this is all that is needed to start a safety campaign, here is my effort to improve safety in Formula 1.

Are you suggesting that we should carry small children on our bikes and not wear helmets ?

That would slow down the TDF

To the OP: how do you plan to push this further ie what campaigning, or is it solely a page where you just want people to like, which achieves nothing? If you give me the silly answer of "basically it`s a Facebook page set up to campaign to the UK government to make the UK roads more safer for cyclists" or similar I will ban you. We want to know what else you are planning to do, how you want to achieve it, how you think this page will help, any events, publicity, what FB members can do, what figures and targets do you have etc. Let's have some answers, and no BS.

I understand helmets cause more injuries than they prevent. Mainly worn finger tips and carpal tunnel syndrome from pointless internet threads. Got bored after a while, but she was OK. I would.

OP

Have you tried posting the link in all the other forums(a) on here?

Honestly now this is a sensible question, so don't spout your usual 3 year old childs line of logic as above, Why will they listen to yours out of the hundreds of similar pages & groups & campaigners.

Oh and how monetized is your Facebook page?


Edit - moved to a new post anyway

the Cyclists For Right Of Way UK Campaign is set up not by one person,
but by every cyclist for every cyclist to put a hard hitting informative campaign over to the government
to make the UK roads safer for cyclists,

the Campaign is not set up by one person, it`s for every cyclist and anybody who cares to make the UK roads safer for cyclists it`s an OPEN community, as it has just been set up things will evolve to move things forward...it`s good to see Fat Face clothing and Specialized women's supporting
