I have emerged from the permafrost once gain, (sorry I missed the picnic) to lament the political fundamentalism infecting government policy on cycling. That is, government in its most notional and insubstantial form.
You will be relieved to know that I have deleted 90% of what I had written. Not enough you may reasonably say. All I ask is that you investigate what further changes are being proposed by the notional Minister of Transport, Grant Shapps, on yet further changes to the Highway Code on cycling, and make up your own minds, to what extent they reflect your own experience of cycling.
Perhaps the CTC may have something to say.
Au revoir,
Jeff Tollerman

Glad you re still keeping up with developments Jeff. Sorry not to see you at picnic .
We missed you yesterday Jeff.
Regarding the latest pronouncements by Grant Shapps, it seems it was all aimed at the more excitable anti-cycling types. Once they do the sums I think they will realise they have better things to spend money and time on, although it does seem to make a lot of lurid headlines.
Hope to see you soon.
Simon
