9.30 am today. Baker Street on the Outer Circle. A car driver in an altercation with another driver, jumped the red light, drove across the pavement, hit a cyclist and sped off in the damaged vehicle. Did you see / video anything? Please contact @MPSRoyal_Parks
. @Cycliq please reply to my emails. Faulty new Fly12CE. Also Fly6 ordered Black Friday, not expected until May! Whatโs going on? If I knew your customer service was this bad I would never have ordered. SORT IT OUT! @UKCycleChat@CamBike1@WhichUK
@UKCycleChat Just last Boxing Day, deliberately taken out by a white van man in his 3rd close pass of me ๐คฌ Thankfully just cuts bruises and sprained wrist, but annoyingly only got a partial reg no. Witnesses too but @Glos_Police unable to progress case ๐ Using a vehicle as a weapon?
@gazza_d Thereโs actually a 40mph limit in place further along (to protect road workers); ordinarily this is unlikely to happen. Sadly, the roadworks are to enable yet more traffic, as opposed to encouraging more cycling by installing a much needed segregated cycle lane ๐
Hey @CotswoldBMW one of your likely customers just pulled out of your dealership straight in front of us we drove past. We alerted the young male driver to our presence & he then brake checked us. Worth reminding your customers how to drive considerately. Thanks. cc @Glos_Police
Today's announcement from @10DowningStreet is a great start, but for us to really succeed we need to hear more from people saying yes to better health, cleaner air and safer streets - and less from the NIMBYs standing in the way.
Be a YIMBY and #ChooseCycling ๐
Are road users with cameras snitches/grasses? A thread on why road safety is important and why we should all do our bit.
As we know, around 1,700 deaths happen on our roads each year, this has been largely consistent for the past 10 years. 1/15
Hey, @theJeremyVine I'm sorry I couldn't make it onto your @JeremyVineOn5 show this morning, unfortunately, it classes with some work meetings I couldn't reschedule.
I have a statement to make on my tweet which is as follows: 1/10

@BritishCycling Got so fed up with careless or dangerous drivers every time Iโm out on a ride, but without evidence I have no voice & the statistics are simply not there. With video cam I can at least present evidence for police to act & it demonstrates that the problem is real & growing
Iโve had my bike nicked off of my car in Grenoble. It was locked on my car but was taken. It is the bike in the first picture but with the training wheels of the second picture.
I would really appreciate it if you could share this post in the hope I can get my bike back.
