apologies if this has been done already

just watched the ITV4 coverage of le tour.

what do we reckon to the the Halfrauds advert showing mtb'ers skidding into corners, or for that matter the commuter cyclist quite clearly riding on the pavement - the outrage!

Well if it helps pays for TdF to be on tv I'm happy.

I wouldn't buy a bike from Halfrogs anyway so it doesn't bother me.

Helmets aren't legally required so TfL are somewhat ok. Riding on the pavement is a different matter.

Skids are bad wherever they happen (trail, pavements, or pants)

I think cycle computers should have skid-o-meters.

both feet on pedals and 180 deg switchbacks @ full skid mode = happiness in the pyrenees for me.
