10/10, although some of the comments the journos print with each answer are a bit misguided. In a couple of cases I was guessing what they had as the answer, not what the correct answer .

I always assumed that lights HAVE to be used when street lights come on as this is lighting up time, though I do tend to be earlier rather than later, also the reflector, I answered rear on the other one got it wrong, both on this gets it wrong. Don't know why I said yes to a bell, must be tired.

When the sun cannot be seen in the sky????

They are joking :0)

8/10 - got nightime and 'backies' (or 'croggies' as they were known down our street!) wrong. I thought night time for cyclists was when the street lights go on, and that there was no law against croggies.

Goes below the horizon, lights are required. Giving me about three hours a day round here, when lights aren't required!

I once got stopped by a policeman in Copenhagen for riding on the rack of a nice tall young blond gentleman's bike.

it was many, many moons ago.

Chuffin heck, they still haven't fixed that. I mean that it's in the "MEN" section. I have a feeling that "motoring" might be wholly male in the Torygraph too. I guess THEY JUST DON'T CARE, the brave little renegades. Or do I mean retrogrades?

Spare a thought for all those poor men who went into journalism hoping to uncover important stories and change the world, only to find that because of their sex they're not taken seriously on the major stories and can only get commissioned to write pieces in the "male issues" ghetto.

I may have got that slightly back to front.
