A constant danger you face when walking on the lanes around the village is being run down by cyclists. Now I know that cycling is a healthy hobby and should be encouraged but why is it that cyclists now seem to be able to go about the countryside totally devoid of anything that warns of their approach. What happened to the good old fashioned bell that used to be part of every bikes equipment. Back when I was young cyclists without bells stood to have their collars felt by any passing constable.
And while on the subject of adequate qarning, what about some from the hordes of buggies for the disabled that seem to take over our streets.Whilst I fully support the disabled having greater mobility, surely they could advertise their presence by means of a bell or hooter when they are approaching you.
