A police RANGE ROVER flanked by 5 or 6 bikes has just come down Lordship Lane (literally about 60 seconds ago, past the old Grove pub). One of the bike escorts had a whistle and he was using this to stop the flow of traffic to allow the Range Rover and it's entourage through.


Any ideas who this could've been?!

If the Range Rover was a liveried Met vehicle, then it will have been the Special Escort Group (SEG) on a training run


They whizz ahead and dominate the junctions with furious whistling and hand signals


I think the idea is that the wheels of the principals vehicle do not stop rolling

      Cyclists taking over paths!!

      Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.

      Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor

      Yes, I'm aware of that. I believe the brood was five to begin with. However they are almost adult size now so not the prey of rats any longer.
