Rod. Just to be pedantic on detail. Chris was executing a three point turn as we were a little further ahead of you than planned. The nose of the 1800 was fairly well onto the verge so the car was on the correct side of the road for the retrace (though sideways). The other car came barrelling along ...

Barry.

My son just fitted what seems to be similar spec - and from Halfords, I think ... Seems pleased with it, says it's better than fitted to Land Rovers. Can't validate that claim but as he works for JLR can't refute it either. Will find out what model when I see him and post later.

Seems to me that if it's ok to strip Armstrong of his victories on the basis of rumour and heresay, then by the same ctriteria all past TDF winners should also have their titles removed. What's good for the goose.... There's many an innocent man been forced to accept guilt simply because he didn't h...

Presumably this device comes with a built-in gyroscopic anti vibrational, self aligning system to ensure that the boundaries of the 'lane' remain parallel to the road edge at all times, regardless of the direction the cyclist is actually pointing? And what size battery pack would have to be carried!...
