Tiddy, really is probably best to discuss this somewhere else as suggested already in this thread.
I despair every time I see anyone heeling it along the side of a bus / lorry / whatever, Male OR female. Statistics may tell a particular tale but lets not make this a strictly gender issue.......it's a safety & education issue, and this is not the thread to discuss it in.
Also let us not assume that just because a woman sadly lost her life today on her bike due to a heavy lorry, that it had anything to do with heeling along the curb.
RIP to the lady and thoughts to her family and friends at this time.
