| I've always cycles locally and as I've said before not particularly good at long distances. But have always ridden with due care and all this stemmed from the Metropolitan Police /RoSPA Cycling Proficiency test at age of 11. That has paid dividends in my safety but the due care and knowing my responsibility when in charge of a Machine. Which is what a Bicycle is. I would like to see much of the wasted money from showboating but flat half cocked schemes, put into retuning mandatory proficiency tests run by the Metropolitan Police. Not only was this impartial, and informative but it created a better relationship between us unruly kids of the time and the Police. It could be run by retired Police officers or those who may not be fully fit for front line duties which was the norm in several institutions. And rewarding those officers involved. I am sure that my longevity in safe cycling on roads is down to that few hours a week for a month. But I am almost ashamed when out on my bike now by being in a minority of riders who ride with respect for the road and its other users from Pedestrians to HGVs and how many cannot even ride a bike properly. It's quite shocking and a terrible risk to themselves let alone others. . |
