Motorists, when coming up to a give way line, please approach it slowly, do not race up to it because it can be a bit scary for people cycling on the main road. We don't know if you've seen us or if you're going to pull out into our path.

Oh what a surprise, the cycle lane had another vehicle parked in it today when I rode past. Will @SuttonCouncil ever enforce the parking regs here? I won't hold my breath.

This car is regularly parked across this dropped kerb, inconveniencing those in wheelchairs or pushing buggies. It seems that they forgot to get their car MOT'd at the end of last year.

Lambeth resident is angry because he's been fined for deliberately parking in a disabled bay without being entitled to do so.

This week I had a long chat with Mrs Net and we've agreed that before the end of the year I'll cycle the route that I would have taken that day, past where I was hit and onto my office. It'll probably be at the weekend, although I may take a day off to do it.

So commuting and a few long journeys amounts to under 1,000 miles a year. How far away from work so they live?
