    cycling haters petitions afoot

    You have no need to worry at all about this, the petitions will always fail. Governments worldwide including our own are very firmly on a pro-cycling agenda and have long been resisting anything that might deter cycling in any way. The best example of this is cycle helmet wearing. There's...

    If only that were true. Our so called memory experts still insist there is no such thing as an eidetic memory, despite an abundance of evidence that they are wrong, including my lifetime of embarrassing so many people with mine. .

    If you look back through his posting history you'll see he was always consistent in his dislike of the IRA and their actions. You may have missed that since the posts mainly appeared in the threads relating to Northern Ireland's troubled e-bike legal history, but as that concerned e-bike law I...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We haven't even achieved any Space travel yet Ross. The moon isn't remotely a planet, it's still the earth and tightly tied to it so going there is like popping into the back yard. Even going to Mars won't be Space travel, it's just travel within the also gravitationally locked together Solar...

    It will only ever happen for a very few privileged people, certainly not for our 40 million drivers. They can't even avoid colliding with each other on our roads with white guidance lines, crash barriers, signs, speed limits, traffic lights, roundabouts and flyovers. .
