“Hi guys… I’m a courier with Excel, but for a few days am working with a TV production company hoping to make a Panorama documentary about us guys (by which I mean cyclists, and not just couriers) getting munched by HGVs.
Basically, Panorama are interested, but are not interested if all we have is a London-based issue. To a lesser extent they’re only partially interested in incidents from Oxford and Cambridge, what, therefore, I’m after, are cases from around the land, showing the HGV thing to be the nationwide concern that any cyclist using a road regularly will know it to be. I’m asking about on LFGSS (London fixed-gear single speed, for those outside the south-east) too, and if anyone recalls recent incidents in home towns, has heard stuff from riders elsewhere in the country, then let me know, and I’m happy to chase any leads myself”
