Cyclists shame Conservatives for claiming “Labour and their lycra clad lobbyists are slowing Wales” with 20mph speed limits + more on the live blog
> Pope Francis ditches Dogma — Pinarello gifted by Egan Bernal put up for auction... if you've got a spare €30,000 Despite the directive just calling for roads and streets with a 30mph speed limit to be reduced to 20mph, with local councils still ultimately holding the power to have the final say on it, Conservatives have taken up the issue as if people are being forced to drive down the M4 or the A470 at 20mph speeds.
🥀 Labour and their Lycra clad lobbyists are slowing Wales down with their blanket 20mph speed limit.The Welsh Conservatives wrote: “We will SCRAP Labour and Plaid's blanket 20mph speed limit and get Wales moving,” with a cyclist wearing a jersey and a helmet, made to seem as if they’re holding a speed gun pointing at a car.I’m not Lycra clad at all but walk/cycle/usePT and applaud the 20mph rules.
And funnily, some of the lycra clad cyclists they accuse of lobbying the government into making the nationwide changes are the same ones who are going to be somewhat negatively affected by the blanket speed limit, in losing many routes previously used for time trials., with existing courses in such areas going to have to be scrapped or modified to avoid the zones. Many cyclists feared that this would spell the end of safe time trial courses and could be the tip of the iceberg for British racing.
