The mans a legend..

“#CycleMyths 5 "Cyclists should use cycle lanes and stay off the road" Truth - There is NO legal requirement for a cyclist to use one.The only legal requirement relates to drivers. When a cycle lane has a solid white line, vehicles must stay out of it during its time of operation”

“#CycleMyths 4 - "Police unfairly target drivers over cyclists" Truth - @transportgovuk data for 2017 shows that 2 car drivers were killed per billion miles compared with 31 cyclists, meaning a cyclist is 15x more likely to be killed on a road. We target the highest risk areas.”

“#CycleMyths 3 - "So it's ok for cyclists to come right up beside me when I'm at traffic lights?" True! It's called filtering. Cycling is a great way to beat the traffic, stay fit and help the environment! Back to @BritishCycling with another great video: https://t.co/UjA1nAlZ2n”

“#CycleMyths 2 - "Cyclists should always ride single file near the kerb" Truth - @HighwayCodeGB Rule 66 - never ride more than two abreast, and ride in single file on narrow or busy roads and when riding round bends Excellent video by @BritishCycling here https://t.co/MdL8ufC4fK”
