Interestingly enough Simon Mason has been bragging about how he rides
at 25 MPH in a 20MPH limit.


I have asked him what his stopping distance is at that speed.

He has failed to answer.

I have asked him if he thinks it may be dangerous for other road
users.

He has failed to answer.



Some cyclists are really quite arrogant aren't they?
