Have you spotted that the true aim of the project is to humanise IWRATS? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13975#post-173132 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 11:55:45 +0000 gembo 173132@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No limit on the road, I will lead you out and you can break the 30mph at Woolfords if slight East wind. Can be done for reckless or dangerous cycling though (unlikely at Woolfords).</p> <p>Vine would have been busted in the park even if limit was 15mph which is living on the edge.</p> <p>Cyclists acting like cars as far as pedestrians are concerned? Check what IWRATS is trying to do with his novel about the canal towpath. He is humanising the shared users. We want to be this charming man and stop and chat to big John e.g. What shopping you up to today John etc. Just never admit to cycling on it at night. Slow down, smile, get to work a minute lAter, throw your strava device in the drink. Live your life in the moment it is happening do not rush from one moment to the other oblivious of your surroundings.

I wonder if they ever look at evidence and think properly about safety when setting priorities. If not they are wasting tax-payers money. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13975#post-172960 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:52:42 +0000 paddyirish 172960@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@gibbo</p> <p>posters on the road.cc feed said, with justification, that joggers should be picked up as well... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13975#post-172957 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:47:54 +0000 I were right about that saddle 172957@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Maybe Big John could be issued with a uniform and a towpath radar gun? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13975#post-172955 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:40:52 +0000 gibbo 172955@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>5mph as the speed limit?</p> <p>My normal walking page is around 4mph. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13975#post-172953 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:35:56 +0000 chdot 172953@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.itv.com/news/london/2014-11-20/bbc-presenter-jeremy-vine-caught-speeding-on-his-bike-at-16mph" rel="nofollow">http://www.itv.com/news/london/2014-11-20/bbc-presenter-jeremy-vine-caught-speeding-on-his-bike-at-16mph</a> </p>
