"Mr Johnson's official spokesman said: "The mayor wishes to apologise for offering his wife a short-lived lift on the back of his bike!
"He was unaware that he was apparently in contravention of the Road and Traffic Act.""

So here we have one of the country's main advocates for cycling admitting he is unaware of laws applicable to cyclists!!! The mind boggles but it does give us a view of the major issue surrounding cyclists and road safety, and that is cyclists can take to the road completely clueless with regard to riding safely.

Maybe we should send him a copy of the Highway Code then send him on a Cycling Proficiency Test!
