Stay safe all
The older I get the Faster I was
Honister pass is an exception to any rule.Most of us are unable to get to a dangerous descent from where we live, even if we tried! . There are always those trying to get a Darwin Award
Meanwhile for most of us biking IS safer. I gave up road biking three years ago because of traffic and motoring idiots. It is far better now, and one of the few options open.
I will wager bike accident stats are substantially down.
On average. Some will have a heart attack whilst out walking from home. Should we ban walking too?

Natural selection.
Don't forget some of the exercise community are freaks too.
A little and often is the way forward.
[QUOTE=Witton Park;659011]Derbyshire seem to be at the forefront of taking the Government guidance and seeking to tighten it.
It does not include lycra-clad leisure cycling on the now quieter roads.
I wonder what Derbyshire Police Road Policing Unit would like me to wear on my PDE astride my bike. If or when I get pulled I'll ask them and let you know.
Visibility good except in Hill Fog
Is a 1 hour run AM followed by a 2.5hr walk PM yesterday
Then a 20mile almost 6hr run today acceptable??
This is the type of people we are dealing with.
I don't think it is in the spirit of government guidance at this time no matter what area or district was covered.
9.3 mile, 1150 ft, 2:55 walk with Mrs WP - biting wind at times

I went for a cycle ride today (less than 2 hours). When I got back, my wife (who hadn't been out all day) asked me to go for a walk with her, which I did. It was only about 30 minutes, but should I still hand myself in to the Exercise Police, for doing more than one form of exercise in a day?
