    When you see another cyclist, do you try and catch up to him or her?

    I’ve noticed quite a few guys be quite a bit behind me and then a short time later pass me quickly. From my observations, they have always been younger guys. Has anyone else experienced this situation?

    Why did the cyclist cross the road ?

    It's half day Friday so time to spend almost 4 hours playing in the woods. Today it was time to go beyond The Darkside and do a lot of climbing. Much to my surprise the horses have even gone beyond The Darkside. Looks like I just can't get far enough away from them, and will soon be dodging...

    Pantani: The Accidental Death of a Cyclist

    Watched this last night on Youtube: I'm not usually bothered by pro-cycling and knew little of this guy other than having heard his name mentioned a few times. I found this a really interesting, well-produced and poignant documentary about his rise and fall in professional cycling; which...

    Cyclist hit by Range Rover doing blind overtake.

    BBC report. Incident happened on A81 near Balfron in Stirlingshire. Some utter lowlife in a Range Rover overtaking on a blind bend hit a cyclist and didn't bother stopping. Why is it that these clowns never seem to have head on collisions with a fully laden artic coming in the opposite...

    Very sadly towards the end of my ride yesterday, I saw the Air Ambulance land in a field to attend an accident. I had not long previously noted that the helicopter had been at it's base in Cosford. The narrow lane was blocked completely by a large tractor and trailer. There wasn't anything I...

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-52617244 BBCNI are running a story today about a fella who was shot in the legs up the road from me. The fact that they have classified the perpetrator as a cyclist seems a little odd to me. If the aggressor jumped out of a car would the victim...
