Jeez! it was a *joke*. You silly boy. |

I've been keeping 'em peeled for cyclists lately. Population of Medway 260,000. How many cyclists did I see today as I drove around? One. Then it's very straightforward. If they're that non-existant, you can stop whining about cyclists using up road "paid for" out of your valuable vehicle tax. That's not the point. It doesn't matter how small a rodent problem is. Lots of rodent species are cuddly and being encouraged to breed. It's the sewer rats in motor vehicles that need culling. and then the majority of the population would die within a short space of time and we could go back to the middle ages, great. Without motorised transport there would be no bicycles either, so be careful what you wish for. We didn't jump from the middle ages to today without a long intervening period of development so your vision of doom is unlikely. But it's interesting that you took it that all motor vehicles are filled by sewer rats. Could be a sign of a guilty conscience. |

This week on Business Scotland Colin Blane checks out the business behind one of the most remarkable inventions of the industrial age .. the humble bicycle. Over the years, cycle sales have been through some ups and downs but for the last decade or so the push-bike has been pushing ahead again. A recent report suggested cycle use in Scotland was up 32 percent since 2003. Colin talks to a number of people who've saddled up to take advantage of the surge in cycling. There were 3,500 pedal cyclist KSI casualties in the year ending September 2014, an increase of 8 per cent compared with the previous year for Great Britain. What was the increase in Scotland? |

A recent report suggested cycle use in Scotland was up 32 percent since 2003. Colin talks to a number of people who've saddled up to take advantage of the surge in cycling. Scotland currently has a cycling mode share — the proportion of journeys made by bike — of just one percent, a figure that hasn't budged since the 1980s. A 32% increase on 1 is 1.32. Ha ha ha ha ha! Shows how just giving percentages without a base can be misleading. Absolute numbers tell a better story. Oh - so saying that "There was also a big increase in pedal cyclist KSIs which rose 18% in spring 2014" is misleading is it? Safety in numbers - I believe it is called. |

Damn, I thought that was a commute report and referring to gradients from the subject line! That would be quite a climb, although I suppose after 12 years, you'd get used to it and acquire suitably geared equipment! Yet again, PhilWLee demonstrates his uncanny ability to misunderstand what has been written. I wonder if this pitiful disability clouds any judgements he makes in his day to day workings as a high court judge? Is he a High Court Judge: I thought he was a barista? |
