    Not so, riding more slowly with far greater awareness of the surrounding environment, she'd have time to perceive the impending danger and stop to watch the tree fall.

    Cyclezee....The End

    Yes, BP have said they'll put chargers on all their forecourts, but if it means paying the almost £8 a month Polar membership that's useless for very occasional users.
