I’ll keep this post brief as I am at London Stansted Airport waiting to fly to Greece and I’m enjoying a pre-flight Stella (Mmmmm good!). I received an e-mail this morning off TfL about a video they are sending out to 140,000 cyclists in London about how to stay safe on the roads. After the recent spate of road deaths I am not at all surprised that this video has been put together. It is interesting to note that the majority of accidents have been involved with so called Heavy Goods Vehicles. To seasoned cyclists I am sure these tips are not necessary but none the less may be a good refresher. The other video of note by TfL is the popular do the test advert.

Give the new video a watch and let me know what you think.
