Its bloody stupid, I see loads of elderly cyclists about, plus define elderly?
I ride with a couple of guys in their 60s who will whip lots of my mates in their 30s!
I see a fair few elderly (70-80 years old) out and about on bikes and who would benefit most from designated lanes, in terms of being at risk and safety

How depressingly backwards and negative.
UKIP in a nutshell. This smacks of desperation IMO, a properly cynical appeal to people's dislike of 'the other'. And I may be wrong, but I don't recall UKIP complaining that the huge amount of money spent on wooing pensioners come election time amounts to 'discrimination' against the young. Bunch of knuckle-dragging w
kers led by a hypocritical, untrustworthy clown. All IMO of course.http://road.cc/content/news/147571-ukip-candidates...
UKIP candidate for Ealing Southall, John Poynton, commented on the CTC's website yesterday: "The pressures on facilities for cycling are principally caused by high levels of immigration. No party can do anything significant for cyclists until we have left the European Union. Only UKIP will do this."
Its nice to see they have a unified policy on this....

For more amusement poke your head into any of the multitude of UKIP threads over in News, Politics and Racism.

That bit is fine. Most cycle lanes are pointless. But the other 3/4 of the flyer where the writer goes off on a crazy rant? Not so much.Where does it say UKIP objects to cycle lanes, it says its not costed and could be a waste of money, isn't that sensible or are you happy for our money not to be spent where its most needed?

Agreed, it has also been pointed out that this flyer is fake.By the way, I cycle daily to work, I am young(ish) and I will be voting UKIP.
