The quiz on here appears to be in the book

Here for rides.
If the vast majority of adults who ride bikes are also motorists then the AA may legitimately claim to speak for people on bikes. Same people, different mode.

Their customers also crap on toilets, but that doesn't make the AA an expert on bleaching behind the rim.

@jefmcg & @mjray I'm in this situation right now and spot on, a driving licence can be revoked or voluntarily surrendered whereas it is down to personal recognaisance and self determination on cycling. Casualty consultant and my GP both strongly advised I do not cycle on roads while investigations into my collapse are ongoing - not only for me falling under vehicle wheels but if I did go down and forced a swerve to avoid me that instigated another collision.... I've been voluntarily road free for 3 months now in all forms of transport and am getting on with off road and non canal towpath bike routes.

Hmmmm, they may be able to extrapolate it into a claim to speak for people who own a bike, it's not quite the same thing.

Assuming the worst for this part.
It's been shown that you're less likely to have a fit, whilst you're doing something you like.
Pointed that bit out years ago to the specialist and he agreed.
Hope you get some good news soon on this.

Hmmm. The % answers given by respondents confirm that the UK use of the "cyclists dismount" sign as advisory not mandatory is poorly understood and therefore unhelpful.

And while we're about it, what does Monsigneur Boardman know about roadcraft/cyclecraft?

Point of order: it wasn't actually the cow's arse, although it may have looked that way.

Last question is worded kinda odd as well.

What'd he bring out? As getting clear in time is important.

Here for rides.
The vast majority of cyclists that I know are also regular frequent car drivers. (Shame too many of them bring their motor-centric mind-sets out on their bikes with me but...)

Agree entirely but to extend coincidental car and bike ownership to a motoring oriented organisation speaking for cyclists is a stretch too far.
I own a cooker and a car, does this empower the AA speak for me on culinary matters?
