The point I think I was getting at all along
Is that I have a driving license and if I break the law whilst driving I must accept the consequences of points.

If I break those laws whilst cycling, I don't have to produce my license because I don't need a license to ride a bike - nul points.

well, yes
you can't loose what you don't have. but a lot of people seem to think this means that cyclists are immune from the law and aso don't belong on the roads, neitherof which is true.

looking back the ony thhing I've been wrong on is the speed limit, but i may have missed the point, in which case sorry.

I failed my cycling proficiency test in junior school
But they didn't stop me from riding a bike.

This has nothing to do with anything
I never even took one.

That, CQ, is his point.

I didn't indicate at a junction on a bike
I was dragged before the beak, given a dressing down, fined and then banned from riding a bike for 20 minutes.

We don't have the problem with cyclists up here too much
And it's been a while since I lived on Maple Road as you'll remember, but there were a lot of cycling cunts in South London even then.

*sigh*
sadly most of them are cunts too. i'd like to se mandatory training or at least better enforcement of existing laws.

you may, with the greatest possible respect, keep it.

I'm not just going to keep it
I'm going to cherish it forever. Tried your life and hated it.
