Very exciting. And your reason? Happy to contribute towards 1000s of deaths in London each year from the poor air?? The future is electric. As nobody on a bike goes further than about 30 miles nowadays ideal (I've done 500 miles on a bike in a day when I used it as a sole form of transport)

The future is actually pricing unnecessary private transport off the roads with a view to cleaning up the air..... so, people will think twice about driving the short distances where they could use alternate means.


A correlation with improvements in public transport is essential.

Wow, right on. That's a pub conversation (I am a professional tree huger BTW so many of my posts are to provoke discussion).


You can also argue that a near empty bus isn't great for the environment either.

Why? Prey tell. What's your issue? Why didn't you respond to TfL's consultation? Don't you have bigger issues ie the increasingly tougher restrictions on getting a licence in the first place and the cost of insurance? This is a social network/community forum where members talk about issues rather than post one liners. Persuade me. (yes I know I am coming across as pompous).

Not pompous at all Malumbu, imho, to expect posters to engage in a discussion rather than simply repeatedly bumping posts without any topic development.


I think others have made some excellent points, and I'd be very interested in reading further debate. xx

      Bitey Fox.

      Quote "it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me." Doesn't say clearly that it tried to bite you , but instead implies that you had the impression, right or wrong that it wanted to nip you.  unless you are clear others will read it how you write it.  As for being a jobsworth, what a quaint old expression, haven't heard that for a long while.

      Attempted car theft - Underhill

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Crook locks can be sawn through, or the steering wheel to which it is attached, I know to my own cost. The safest additional security measure is what's called a ghost immobiliser, which cannot be traced through the car's electronics, meaning it is difficult to bypass. They cost a bomb however.

      Thieves on electric bike around East Dulwich

      By march46 · Posted

      I’ve reported two instances of mobile phone theft to 999 in recent times. On both occasions several police units have arrived very quickly - in one case they found the perpetrator.

      Attempted car theft - Underhill

      By vladi · Posted

      With all these high-end car thefts, surely there's a case to be made for all new cars to be supplied with a Crook Lock type device and having insurance invalidated if the owner does not have it in place when it is parked.
