    A recent contributor to the Evening News letters page complained about the dazzling, ultra-bright, LED lights cyclists use when travelling through the Meadows in dusky, February evenings creating a “lightmare”.

    Well, I applaud such cyclists. Elsewhere in the city are council placards around lampposts saying cyclists are required by law to have lights, but many don’t – so drivers should look out for them.

    How about … cyclists are required by law to have lights and those who don’t will be cautioned or charged and prosecuted, just as would be the case with other road users?

    The new circulation numbers will be out next week, I think. It's halved in 4 years, is now about 15k, I reckon.
