Yes - when I get back to Blighty, I intend to get back on my bike this summer. I have a Scott CR1 that I have not ridden yet.

I've never ridden one of those, but they look like a pretty nice bike.
Are all Scotts carbon frames?
They cost well over a few grand don't they?

No - some basic ones are alloy.

You can get alloy ones for a few hundred quid with a cheapo groupset, going up to £7000+ plus for an Addict frame with an electronic groupset.

Then why do you rarely see cyclists?

Could the answer be something like "you are never more than 6 feet away from
a rat"?

Could it be because cyclists are a very small (or insignificant, as
you like to say) minority of journey makers, whether they be
recreational or not? Why should any of those statements (i.e. 3.1
million people ride a bike each month, cycling is one of the easiest
ways to fit exercise into your daily routine and you rarely see
cyclists) be mutually exclusive?

Also, if they rarely see cyclists, why do they make so much fuss about
them. The mind boggles.

It is the classic troll dilemma - they want to show that cycling is so rare that nobody is doing it at the same time as trying to assert that cyclists are dying left, right and centre as well as breaking the law everywhere wherever you look.

All they do is destroy their own "logic" whichever tripe they come out with.

I have yet to see a dog take a **** on the footpath around here. If I saw
the owner of the dog allowing this I would make a fuss.
Does your drug addled cyclist mind also boggle at that?

The smell of stupidity giving the cyclists away?
