After 11 years of bliss with our first VW Touran we finally had to let it go after it failed it’s MOT badly ( mainly electrical) One week later and we are now the proud owners of a newer Touran and still car finance dept free.

Another reason for stopping and taking a picture . The bike is my Dunelt fixed wheel and the bus stop / shelter is in Orlingbury .

So on today’s training ride I looped home another way through a city centre. I took a bus lane as it was traffic free thus safer. Sign is mon-fri 0700-1600. Then some smack head is telling me to get out of the bus lane and into the traffic. Some people are so thick, they see a bus lane and think...

Yesterday this was. He got on the bus then sat down in front of me. Then i got the wiff! Cigarettes and chips. It was only a 15 minute journey so although i can't hold my breath that long,i breathed through my mouth,covering it slightly with a piece of kitchen towel to keep any bacteria out...

I noticed the driver of a bus full of passengers driving past me kept looking down. I looked in his cab as he drove past and saw that he was texting on his phone. Nice to know that he cared about the safety of his passengers!

This report on BBC shows CCTV footage (not for the easily distressed) of a bus careering onto a pavement and hitting a pedestrian in Gun Street, Reading today. It's violent and shocking but the bit that left me gobsmacked is how the man stands up and continues on his way into the pub he's just...

Today, my wife and I decided to take our grandson, ( 4 years old) on the bus to Llandudno. The journey only takes about 20 minutes so it was a change from the car. On the way back my wife said to me:" Do you know how much this journey would have cost us if we had to pay?" Of course I didn't as...

http://road.cc/content/news/207350-cyclist-who-fails-hang-back-punished-london-bus-driver I've just seen this on road.cc. Apologies if its already up as a thread. It's unclear to me if the bus actually hit the cyclist, or if the cyclist was already at the junction. either way it's an awful...

I have decided to do a charity cycle ride and also trying to drag a few other bus drivers along with me to do this challenge. The 555 bus route is just short of 60 miles from Keswick to Lancaster. The cycle ride takes place next year, 24/09/17. If you would like to donate or follow our...
