Don't ride in groups or we will be stopped cycling completely.

All my rides are private, but I am still seen on Flybys & can see others, just nobody can click on me & see me or anything about my rides. I don't wave my willy at anyone BTW they'd only laugh

If I waved my willy they would need super zoom to se it.

Wow, wish he wouldn't be so vague.

It is not possible to follow all the contradictory guidance and given a choice between Gove and a medic specialising in my illness, I ain't choosing Gove! I do of course obey that law.

There is no law about close passing someone on a bicycle

He is right. The thing is, though, in many cases the problem is as much the parents as the kids.

There are nurses and doctors and cleaners and supermarket cashiers and bus drivers and many others putting their lives at risk every day. Before you leave the house, think, do you really need to?

But equally, there's no credible guidance telling anyone to do that one, either!

There is I would suggest a very simple solution to it, make it that anyone found not out of their property for genuine reason along with all the occupants of the property will be at low priority for medical attention compared to anyone who has complied with the requirements.

I do not know for sure , but as the the NHS people I think swear an oath maybe doing as you suggest would be unethical, also how could it be proved that they were out and about misbehaving at the time they were infected,

Neither simple, nor a solution. Aside from the ethical considerations, are you advocating that we should all be under continuous surveillance to determine our eligibility for NHS treatment ?

Even Priti Patel would draw the line at that.

I hope she's not reading this thread. Could give her ideas.

Both careless and dangerous driving would cover it.

My presumption, rightly or wrongly was that they all met somewhere then started riding at intervals, rather like an ITT.
Leads me to think there would have been a noticeable sized group at start / finish.

My presumption, rightly or wrongly was that they prearranged a route that they all could ride so they could compare via the Internet once they had all gone home. Did you have log your route on Strava? Do you have flyby?

Slightly off-topic, but does poncing about on an electric scooter count as "exercise"? I can see that operating the throttle might give your wrist a thorough workout but that's about it.
