Very bad news: Another TT cyclist was killed on Monday a couple of miles from the one six weeks ago.
Another slip-road collision.
Good news: The CPS have chucked in their hand with regard to prosecuting me for obstruction.
(Cycling down the A12 in the rush hour) The police will now have a lot of explaining to do.
Bad news: The Highways Agency and politicians are still pretending everything is rosy. (Please chase
David Jamieson, Road Safety minister at [email protected] - especially in the light of the
top item which is highly relevant.)
Good news: The positive reaction of the public to a _reasonable_ but tough campaigner has been very
heart warming and makes it easier to do more.
Bad news: The police refuse to take any action when cycle lanes are used as car parks. eg.
Dovercourt.
Good news: They will find it difficult to hide behind their stated policy of "Only act if the road
is blocked."
Thanks to all of you who sent words of encouragement. I'm trying to keep a high public profile and
be a complete pain in the neck for 'the authorities' so this might lead to becoming somebody who can
help you champion your causes or advise on how you might have a go yourselves.
