Yesterday I had a driver sail across in front of me on a roundabout,she was talking to her passenger and completely oblivious to me on the bike-[white lid headlight on].I suppose if someone's got two bawling sprogs in the back and there wondering what to buy uncle fester there not really with it.The office partys be kicking of soon-driving standards aint going to be good.

Glad your alright Iggy :-) my taxi driver on friday night nearly wiped out a cyclist, glad I shouted out otherwise he's have been under the wheels - not good :-(

Weve got 4 inch of snow here already, and the roads werent gritted last night (Was a sudden snow storm it would appear) so i had to ride 5 miles home with both feet on the floor - actually walking the bike around roundabouts!  It was insane.   This morning i tried to get the bike outta the garage, but there was so much snow that i couldnt push the bike backwards lol.  ARGH! Does anyone know of a good household item that would act like road grit?  Does normal salt work at lowering water's freezing point?  Need some put something on my driveway before i kill myself.

salt is salt is salt is salt!!!mixed with sand!any left over put on your chip's cheapest way[depending on the size of the path!] is big bags of dishwasher[or water softener salt] salt from places like homebase of the equivelant in Holland!its in granules  but should do the job!an rust your bike a treat!

For a real roundabout, try 'The Magic Roundabout' in Hemel Hempstead!! Don't know what the designers were smoking, but it was good LOL. Bizarrly, it actually works, but only if you know how to use it :) Highly amusing being with someone driving up to it for the first time LMFHO!!
