And therefore a corresponding increase in deaths in a month then. Sad thing is it's likely to be innocent people who die rather than the people taking the mick.

Oh and I also have a large group story, yesterday on Wirral, group of at least 8. Unusually for me I uploaded my ride to strava just to see if I could find them on Flyby, I did. If anyone wants the link I can put it here, you'll be able to see for yourself, maybe comment on their ride 
Seriously though, idiots. This lot looked a right mess, too.

Not sure how to comment on Strava but I'll have a look and see if I recognise any user names or if they have links to bikes?

The newspaper has singularly failed to point out that the signs are merely advisory and carry no legal weight. Can't think why theyd do a thing like that. The signs pre date the Canal and Rivers trust who do permit cycling on the towpath, and advise all users to abide by the towpath code.
They've not actually done anything unlawful, they're permitted to exercise and the social distancing bit is guidance, not law, so I'm not quite sure what the ruddy face yokels are prattling on about.

I often see a comment like this but we were all new once.
Indeed we were, but we didn't all start riding the same month of a single year.
Because they are decent human beings, who understand that they need to abide by the rules, for the greater good and that the longer they don’t abide by them, the higher the death toll will be and the longer this wretched thing will be around?
Or is that too much to expect and millions are in the sod everyone else mode?
I welcome them and the more the better

Jeepers, I dread to think what your view of learner drivers or, perish the thought, children cycling is.
Learner drivers, no problem, ditto children. Adults swinging out from the gutter at right angles because they suddenly realise they want to turn right? Not so much.

Even now I have not seen groups of more than 10 cyclists passing my house. My house is on a popular cycling route and part of next years TDF course.
.Most of the restrictions are lifted in Denmark but the Danes have been fastidious in the governments applications and will stick to small groups unless told otherwise.
Maybe this is why we have come out of this better than most countries.

Went out for a ride this morning and saw loads of various sized groups of cyclists. I don't think anyone cares any more.
