will be in touch if i need to take up your generous offers!
if we can get it from Castle Bromwich to Flitwick (M1 J12) I can run it Flitwick to North London on Monday.
Just reading through all this...this is exactly the reason why I HATE cyclists...
I remember back in the day having to take a cycling proficiency test at school as part of a road safety scheme but this is just the problem - it isn't compulsory to have passed any sort of test or done any course for road safety on a bike.
Anyone thinking this should be compulsory? Even if it was free (or v. cheap) just so people have a bit of sense? The amount of cyclists I see jumping red lights or bumping up the path to get around it is shocking.
mzhussein - really feel so bad for you for what happened. I would be gutted too.
drivers take a test
are all drivers law abiding and competent?
Maybe not...but you need a certain level of skill to operate a car competently do you not? With car tests, you have to meet a certain standard before you are allowed to pass your test and carry a licence. Similarly, cyclists could do a test whereby they must show basic competency to ride bikes and exercise awareness when doing so.
It is at that point that police then become important, enforcing this afterwards![]()
Sadly i am away friday to sunday night. Is there anyone else around rugby/Daventry area who could collect/store a gearbox till monday?
