Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Aaarrrgghh - get well soon Bradley

He would definitely have been wearing a helmet, and I'd be surprised if he wasn't lit up like a Christmas tree. This is the guy's job, he's not some pavement chav on a nicked bike (which are the only cyclists we seem to have in Grimsby)

Apart from the fact that he has been fairly vocal about helmets in the past, I don't see the relevance of helmets here.They don't help you avoid collisions, and he broke his ribs, not his head.

Lots of people being nice & vocal about cyclists as a result of this. Apparently, we all cause accidents, none of us signal, we always wear black, us road cyclists never look where we're going, none of us have lights, no helmets, ride on the pavement, all ride 3 abreast! I mean .... I could go on!!

That's not a surprise. It's just jealousy on the part of car drivers.

Wouldn't he be wearing team kit? I imagine he is paid to?

Maybe, JohnnyO, but maybe not when he's "off duty". I gather from witnesses that when Cav did some winter miles round the lanes of Essex last year he often wore his Rainbow Jersey.

You would, though, wouldn't you. I'd be in yellow if I were Wiggo.

Although polka-dots are often on display up here in super-flat Lincolnshire...
