July 15th a Gopro experiment a ride around London to work out the Gopro

Still learning and the sound is poor, but it’s just working out how to use it and I will still use the flip as the main Cam and the Gopro for high lights and add sound.

So this and the next Video are trials with no sound.

Politicians and games organisers Kill cyclists

The decision to ban bicycles from over 95 per cent of London’s Games Lanes will put cyclists’ lives at risk, according to the ETA (Environmental Transport Association).
More than nine out of ten Games Lanes are situated on the outside of traffic queues, but cyclists will not be allowed to enter these ‘offside’ Games Lanes for what are described as ‘safety reasons’ – a policy at odds with national standards for cycle training and one described as potentially highly dangerous by the ETA.
From the TfL website: “As 95% of the Games Lanes are offside, and will be busy with Games Family traffic, they are unlikely to be the preferred position for cyclists.”

£130 or bike impounded

Cyclists who stray into the Games Lanes will face a fixed penalty of £130 and their bike will be impounded if they are unable to pay.
OK that is what is going to happen nothing will be done about it, we have not heard anything from the CTC or other organisations that take out subscriptions, and seem to me more worried about being a registered charity, than calling for a cycling protest.
So much for the bumbling cyclist mare of London to say nothing about it and to allow it, it’s all a con and a lie about improving cycling in London all it is as some blew paint called a cycling motorway but you can’t use it as to cars parked on it, it looks good and does nothing and that is a politicians dream come true all looks no quality and is the Kings new clothes story. Just slap some lines around and then chant look what great work I am doing. but Cyclists who stray into the Games Lanes will face a fixed penalty of £130 and their bike will be impounded if they are unable to pay it’s all just another. X Factor looks good but achieves nothing however this policy will kill someone, it’s not may be it will.
