The actual chance of injury is low if you discount the numpties

Just ride normally and take all usual/sensible precautions. Also, just carry out your own risk assessment. What is the actual likelihood of needing an ambulance based on your riding history? How many of your trips have involved a ride in an ambulance? I think some of us might just need to get a grip, get real and man (or woman) up and grow some.

Letters@dailymail.co.ukIf your workplace was paying attention and behaving responsibility they would give you the day off just in case
on full pay of course
I'm sure the chancellor will hear what has been said and start up another scheme for people to be able to stay at home rather than take the risk of going to work
especially those who use the extremely risky option of cycling - and especially if they do so without wearing a helmet and hi-vis.
anyone got the email of the Daily Fail editor - I might have a column he can print???
actually the Scum would be an idea - I think they are a columnist down at the moment
Will Quince said people should take "extra care" due to disruption, and he wouldn't go running on icy roads due to the additional risk.
A health minister has suggested people should avoid contact sport and unnecessary car journeys during ambulance strikes on Wednesday.
In all seriousness, I think DIY is one of the major causes of accidents in the UK, so not putting up Christmas decorations should be top of any such list of dangerous stuff.
The Seven Groundhog Days of Cyclechat:Here we go again!
We had this debate done to death during the COVID pandemic when hospitals were stretched to the limit and filled beyond capacity due to the double whammy of patient levels and illness amongst staff.
It was also hotly debated last week in the thread about riding your bike in the cold/snow.
I think both sides of the argument have been thoroughly covered so no need to rake it all up yet again?
The Seven Groundhog Days of Cyclechat:
1. Dangers
2. Lubrications
3. Clothing
4. Frame materials
5. Price / value
6. Other transports
7. Whether Accy should wear a deer stalker, a nineteenth century uniform of the Grenadier Guards, French wellingtons and cerise jodhpurs when fetching the fish and chips on Friday, and which cocktail dress his dog should pick for the open-top /lidded car journey
Much like the trope that there are only seven stories to be told, and all literature is once version of one of these.
Perhaps we ought to just sticky the seven perenniel cycling threads and shut this place down?
