Traffic Droid will be on a new channel 4 program

As you pointed out if you have trouble use another form of transport.

It's not always possible, Dan. People's jobs move, or they have to choose where they live depending on their work or their partner's work or their kids' schools. Sometimes the only sensible choice is a train with a possible missed connection or sitting for hours in a traffic jam. Cycling is good, but not if you have too far to go, or you aren't well... Life is not black and white...

Spot on Spinney thanks.

I woulnt care for the missed connection and wait that much, but its a basic platform style station to wait at with a bus shelter for its facilities. Killing an hour there is different to killing an hour at a station with at least a proper waiting room.

The alternative BTW (if I dont cycle or buy a car) is I get the bus, which is an boring and long rattlefest! (plus I cant fit in the seats with long legs).

Amen. I hate the bus and only use it if it is absolutely necessary for my day to continue. I am too tall to fit in the seat, I hate the bus. That's why I cycle or take my bike.

He needs to sort out the chin strap, under not on.

And he has two torches plus a triple Cree torch on his helmet, way too bright for street use if it's a T6 ?

Especially in the center of London, in fact any town or city with decent street lights.

His videos show him lighting the cabs up on busses. If it is indeed a T6 x3 then it's an off road light. Very dangerous on a helmet on road.

His helmet has a strap, it's a double strap, a few other people queried that.

Well it won't stay on his head if he falls off. He hasn't got any Lycra either.

Shock horror. TBH he gets bonus points for no hiz. Did not like the gaffa tape on the bars though for the cameras. Fussy, me, well yes.

And as for the javelin off the bars......

Well I thought he may have been pulled for that, he has been using it for months..

 

[shouldbeinbed]

It's a bit rude to attack cyclists by inventing safety statistics to try to portray cyclists using the road as being reckless. Dishonest too.

I think we're at cross purposes. Ididn't see any stats made up or otherwise in the post glow worm FO'd nor then went onto further dissect in response to JJ's considered response to the same one.

I believe it is an Exposure Diablo, so 1,100 lumens
So it's 3x XPG
