Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

I feel like the Drops team crowdfunding would do well to have a lower donation amount than the £50 package, I'd quite happily donate a tenner to try to keep them going, without wanting anything for it, just knowing the team might be able to keep going would be enough.
Bournemouth? On the promenade? Where they fine cyclists £330 for riding a bike? I wonder what the fine is for driving a train?
I trust that the train operator will be fined appropriately and the train will be banned and the promenade police will be making sure that he doesn't get back on after they've told him to get off and push.
And let's hope too that all the train riders will now be required to wear helmets.
Well, that's my productivity down the toilet, but I've been pulling some RAD tricks.
Well done Tower Hamlets police. We hear so much about the police not taking bike theft seriously that it is refreshing and deserving of praise when they get such a result.
Amazing cornering technique.
