My response to a fake letter in our local newspaper.
On 9 JUN 04, you published a letter with the following
content.
"Now that the police are dealing with the motorists
that break the speed limit, are they going to uphold
the law regarding the cyclists that don't have lights
on during darkness?
That pedal on the pavement? That ride through red
traffic lights?
If the law is upheld for motorists it should be likewise
for cyclists.
S Mason, Bloomfield Road, Wold Road, Hull."
This letter was a fake. The person pretending to be me was
using my old address (actually Bloomfield Avenue) from over
4 years ago. No such person as S Mason lives there.
Since I usually write about pro cycling matters, the
phony writer is obviously trying to hijack my name in an
attempt to prove a point. I would like to put the record
straight if I may.
Thanks.
Simon Mason
