  • If they're assessing actual risk, then they still wouldn't be imposing a 20mph speed limit to bikes though. End result is people won't bother with courses with speed limits if you risk DQ for speeding.

    Highway authorities aren't imposing a speed limit on pedal cycles, because they can't. CTT course designers, though, should consider whether it's appropriate to send head-down red-mist hands nowhere near the brakes testers at 35mph through a zone where the highway authority thinks the risks merit slowing motor traffic to 20mph

  • Sure. But the ACTUAL risk of incident is still low. Now I wonder what the force is of 100kg at 35mph vs. 1500kg at 20mph (not that anyone in a Range Rover has ever stuck to the speed limit)

    I wonder how many years until all UK bike racing is just Zwift?
