You can tell the roguery and oppression of a state by its attitude to women. The more misogyny, the more mad the state. The Taliban’s Afghanistan. Iran. North Korea. To name only 3. Violence begins against women: terrorists usually have track records of VAWG.

And Chris Whitty reminds us that cycling is, in fact, a perfectly normal thing to do, a perfectly healthy thing to do, and a cheap form of transport. No lycra necessary. (Or cycle helmets, IMO. Shhhh!!!)
