Highway Code.PNGroad.cc live blog: Highway Code tweet sparks a bit of a discussion, Martyn Ashton gives inspirational talk and more
Jack has been writing about cycling and multisport for over a decade, arriving at road.cc via 220 Triathlon Magazine in 2017. He worked across all areas of the website including tech, news and video, and also contributed to eBikeTips before being named Editor of road.cc in 2021 (much to his surprise). Jack has been hooked on cycling since his student days, and currently has a Trek 1.2 for winter riding, a beloved Bickerton folding bike for getting around town and an extra beloved custom Ridley Helium SLX for fantasising about going fast in his stable. Jack has never won a bike race, but does have a master's degree in print journalism and two Guinness World Records for pogo sticking (it's a long story).

Bonsai samurai? Or is it just a case of "they seem to get smaller every year"?

The cyclist looks very slightly unsteady as he starts moving, but that is certainly no rason to drive at him! He is very clearly visible and it is perfectly clear what his intentions are.
Isn't it an offence to use your horn in this manner (ie. "It annoys me that you don't have to wait in this traffic jam like I do, therefore I'm going to drive unnecessarily close to you and use my horn")?
This is the best bit from the article...
"The cyclist comes perilously close to the cars driving behind."
Just consider that sentence for a second.

Perfectly legal cutting through stationary traffic to filter down the outside. Impatient idiot driver trying to get 20m down the road so he could stop again.
Hi, sorry for any confusion: our live blog includes short stories with the main topics of conversation included the title. If you scroll down you should have found the post with a link to both our forum topic on the Bristol Post article and also a link directly to the article itself in the text. We're still trying to improve the format of the live blog and would be glad of any feedback to make it more enjoyable - email us at info [at] road.cc or comment back. Thanks!
I see a photo of a stationary bike but no story or links.
Interesting comments.
I preferred this story.
Guys these live blog pages are utterly broken in chrome due to piles of Javascript errors ...
EDIT: Never mind .... pebcak
The cyclist in the Bristol story, not great cycling but no worse that driving I see daily.
