Basically Highways England are trying to have bikes banned from the A63 out of Hull. It's a busy dual carriageway (the only real main route in and out of Hull) with quite narrow lanes and it's a really popular TT route. There's been a fatality a few years back (some poor chap went into the back of a caravan).

Whilst for many those kinds of roads might seem madness to ride on, but statistically they're very safe - just that the outcome of any collision is usually sever. If they're trying to use the only know fatality to ban cyclists then that potentially will have a significant effect on all cycling in the UK.

Perhaps we should ban cars from every road there’s been a fatality on?

The OP posted the same thread three times! There was a discussion on one of the other two.

Ah sorry. I found this whilst I was looking for the Cricket thread. Apparently the forum is working just fine *rolls eyes*
