A cyclist has been branded a “dummy” by police for riding on the hard shoulder of the M1 in Hertfordshire.

It’s hard to believe some people are that dum

FTFY, now back to my ironing…

Have you seen the photo?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cycle lane down the side of a main road that’s that wide and well maintained. 😉

We’re allowed on dual carriageways which don’t have a hard shoulder but do have a 70mph limit. Riding on one of those wouldn’t arouse any criticism.

Unless it’s dark, you’re dressed in black carrying a less-than-helpful set of lights. See the “I Nealry Killed a Cyclist Thread” for details.

Spotted someone doing this a few weeks ago, somewhere around J18 on the M1. He was riding a BSO and pedalling like fury.

yay more cyclists are **** fodder for the velophobes

True but riding on any road dressed in black carrying a less-than-helpful set of lights is significantly less than clever.
