I haven't been on this forum for a while and read about the hit and run
cyclist in this morning's Times. I love the 'wanton and furious cycling'
offence. It should have been applied to the young man on a bicycle who
ran into me from behind while I was walking along the pavement in the High
Street of my local town a couple of weeks ago, but by the time I had
picked myself up again he had gone. Didn't even get an apology, although
fortunately I was not injured beyond a few bruises. Time for cyclists to
be registered and insured I think!

The WFC charge has been dropped.

Oh, guilty of "only" GBH then.
