Perhaps she should have worn a helmet. As has been claimed
repeatedly, helmets protect against head and upper facial injury.

Ho,ho, ho - very funny - mind it may become true as more and more
****wit cyclists think it is OK to ride on pavements/run in to
pedestrians.


More and more? Evidence of increaseing proportion of pavement
cyclists?


Well my evidence is my own eyes, there are more & more of them.

I was stuck behind a car today that had issues overtaking another car
that
had driven onto the pavement.


If he was completely on the pavement then there would be no problems
overtaking him


PS - You never did explain why you published the names and addresses
of the restaurants owned by the Vietnamese guy who hit the cyclist?

Did you have a good reason to do so - surely you weren't encouraging
vigilantes?


That would surely drum up business
