Unfortunately, it is people like this who give cyclists a bad name. If we don't respect the highway code ourselves and do our best to be responsible road users we will be driven off (quite literally!) the roads.

Agreed

You might be interested to know the Police are also watching at the moment. We got pulled up in the valley Saturday week ago because one of our number did a wide overtaking manouvre of the other two without looking and signalling. The policeman was concerned that a following vehicle had to break heavily to avoid us. He discussed the colour of our clothing, only one of us was wearing a high visibility vest.

I ride to work most days and these days I always obey the road rules. I frequently have to stop at the traffic lights at the Railway Station to be passed by scores of other riders. I have actually seen the Police issuing tickets to riders at this set of lights. Again cyclists not being seen to do what they expect of other motorists!!!
