Morning! I would have appreciated a friendly shout after the horror of King William St./Moorgate :)

P.S. You're the first forumenger to see my new bike too!

Woah Cats is a legend! Gave me £5 over the asking price because I didn't bring any change.

That £5 is going straight to the forum, and I'll match it too.

Well shit.

BlackandBlue (and friend, not sure if you're on here) all the way into the city from E&C. Nice to see you again!

It happens at all junctions. It's almost as if the police don't care about running ambers.

They don't care about running reds either!

You badass.

I'm secretly really worried I'll get arrested for confessing online.

:'(

Not strictly. The verdict of the hearing was based on the idea that the officer didn't put on his sirens and blues [bullshit] and that I ran the light of my own accord.
They took the officer's word over my footage so it was never shown whether it is legal or not to go through a red when directed to do so by an officer.
In future I will be as conservative as possible and not.

What a motherfucker. I didn't pick that up on the other thread!

Interesting though, I've rolled over the stop line plenty of times getting out of the way of a siren. So criminal.

If you thought it would be unsafe you did the right thing. I'd also argue that if you look behind and see a truck on fire flashing it's lights and sounding it's horn, then going through on red is fine too.

Didn't Chung get done for this? Turns out it's only a courtesy to get out the way and you're never meant to break the law to facilitate it.

se1derful this morning. good to meet you briefly.

Likewise! Sorry I beaned it off, had to get to that meeting! All was good, they gave me a bacon roll...

Black and Blue this morning on London Bridge!

Nice to roll with you - seen you and your (lovely) bike before!

Very flouro.
So undertake.

RIP fellow rider.

This has to stop.

Maybe it was because I saw the accident scene last night but on my ride home today all I could think about were those that have recently lost their lives and also just getting myself home safely. It was a pretty emotional ride as I went past 3 of the accident sites. I felt truly vulnerable for once. Almost as if there was this dark energy out there just hovering over all of us.

Anyone else feeling this right now?

For sure. I get all antsy if I don't hear from my lady because she cycles and I assume she's been run down.

In short, I feel vulnerable like never before!

RIP rider. Your friends and family are in my thoughts.

When will this shit end? A pointless, avoidable waste of life.

A forum cap southbound on Walworth Rd last night about 6.45, then Ada northbound not more than 30 seconds after!

Yeah. Not my finest hour. The horses were just doing what they were told.

I would love to see this in a crossover comic, sort of "Draw Your Own I Confess".

I can just visualise you shouting belligerently at some confused horses, possibly shaking your fist.

Is in the UK the cycle helmet optional in open roads as well as in cities?

Yep. Only times when it's compulsory is racing AFAIK.

Shitty, shitty news to log on to. RIP rider.

Also, SO MUCH FUCKING DIESEL ON THE ROAD.

This. It's like Rainbow Road out there.

Me for being an idiot. Took a blind right hand turn leaning and at pace. Wet leaves in blind spot. Ripped bibs, bent bars and twisted saddle, road rash and a touch of bruising. Feel like a plonker but im fine.

Car stopped and put his hazards on and helped me up. Nice guy.

Ouch! HealTFU soon.

I'm steering well clear of leaves at the moment.
