[Just zis Guy, you know?]

Helmets again, I'm afraid, but more of a personal perspective than
anything else, brought on by reflecting that I have been drawn into
spending time that I would rather spend on my bike, working against
legions of non-cyclists who want to force us all to wear plastic hats
because they think cycling is dangerous, not that they do it
themselves at all.

Now if only we could persuade the BBC to include that, and
cyclehelmets.org, in their related links whenever they publish a helmet
story.

I don't want to sound like I'm stating the obvious - but have you actually
asked them?

Also - perhaps you could learn lessons from how P**l Sm*th managed it from
previous articles on the site?

Of course, it might be that Guy and most of the anti-compulsion lobby are
thinking about things sensibly - something which simply isn't fashionable in
these days of extremist politics :-(

Nope, because at the time I simply couldn't be bothered to draft an
appropriately worded e-mail. And I still can't. But maybe later I
will. Probably when there is a specific new story that I think it's
worth sending the suggestion in response to. There's bound to be
something over Bike Week.

They started pedalling gently down the quiet lane leading to reason, but
recently they appear to be bombing down their own motorway bypass around reason
towards the overpopulated county of extremism.
