Which of you is this?

" I fully support your aims! There are far too many cyclists on the roads where I live which are completely unsuitable for them to ride. On country lanes they refuse to move over when a car is behind them and on one day recently a cyclist hit my wing mirror as I squeezed past him despite my use of the horn to warn him. "

Aah my stories arent on there yet. They must be moderated. But clearly not by the brightest person.

So if the stories are moderated the simpleton probably thinks this is the fault of those bloody cyclists.

Quite. I was wondering whether it was a deliberate parody (and it's not quite good enough IMO) or just crap moderation.

My story was brilliant. Not up there yet. Sadly.

My effort, I didn't want to try too hard unless it was moderated. sort of a gentle first attempt to see what got through. As it went up fairly quickly I assumed it was unmoderated, but it could be I was being too subtle.

(to be fair the guy that rides into the back of the parked car is pretty funny...)

Far too subtle but it does show up the idiocy of the person in charge. Mine's not up. Damn.

Apart from cyclists already being responsible, accountable and safe you've got a great campaign going there.

Looks like it's unmoderated. Yet my band camp story did not make it in

Absolutely love the Ducati clip. Knocks off cyclist and blames him for forcing him to under take.

gozzy

What post?

Padeye

Oh come on Gozzy, have you read this whole thread?

MisterMuncher

I'm all for insurance, but I'm not buying it from someone who can't spell the word.

"I'm biking along in my horse lane and this biker rams me from behind. Police take his side ! Useless."

wish i had a horse lane. Surely with such constructive arguments it won't be long before we all pay our road tax, have big bright yellow reg plates and our very own horse lane each.

redvee

Riding my bike story is well illustrated. Who put that story up?

Why do cyclists need compulsory training? Something like 70% of cyclists or higher have full driving licenses. I read an really good blog which I'll find and post which extrapolates that as a percentage probably more cyclists have licenses and insurance than the majority of drivers. The argument runs that (these numbers are from the Society of motor insurers) something like 1.2 million drivers don't have insurance and there's a 90% overlap between unlicensed and uninsured drivers.
Damn, I bit.

thegreatdivide

That's got to be 70% of drivers are also cyclists? My 6 year old niece does not (as far as I'm aware) have a full driving licence and I’m sure a lot of children and young teenagers who make up the UK cycling numbers are also licence free.
