Thor Buttox Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Gees, I never go to town during the day, but happened to venture to the Expo and came out via Bree. What a mess. So many cars in the green lane.
Hairy Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 I am certainly going to get snap happy from now on with cars parked in the cycle lanes ... both here and on that twitter thingie mabob app.

sawystertrance Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 This cuts both ways. Twice this week I have nearly been taken out by guys on MTBs riding on the pavement. Tsk

sawystertrance Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 I thought it was on topic. I totally support the campaign to stop drivers parking in Bree Street ( or any street) but just wanted guys not to be hypocritical. Sort of like road cyclists who ride 3 abreast. Keep up the campaign..
Hairy Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Anyone with a little legal knowledge who I can chat to RE the matter above before a full post?Ok, the company has addressed this with their staff and they will not be in the green lane again.
