Bawdrip to Chedzoy Riverside Path Costs per km £35,267 Mirfield Helm Lane to Bradley Viaduct Costs per km £ 163,820 I suppose there were thousands of cyclists wanting to use the paths to get to work. I don't mind as long as those costs came out of the cyclist licence fees. Do you know if they did? Or was there a cyclists toll on the paths? It costs more than that. If those cyclists stop having a car, the government gets less taxes from that. -- I spilt spot remover on my dog, and now he's gone. |

Pleny of news reports verify this fact. Pleny? I have skidded, and drifted, quite literally thousands of times (I used to race a lot) and have never fallen from my car as a result. You seem to be implying that because you can fall off bicycles they are not viable enough transport. Do you feel about motorcycles? Oopsy daze!

I'll respond to you when your posts are intelligible. Your mind is in knots. The usual process when sending a reply with quoted material is to make your reply relevant. Your reply wasn't relevant and you complained even after I followed yours with an agreement. Had somebody written something along the lines of "somebody else was to blame and the council should be sued for every penny", then your original reply would have been relevant. Nobody wrote anything like that, did they? |
