In Tesco it exempts you from distancing and the 'one-way' system.

Nah, they all do it with or without masks :evil: Buy the way Waitrose is the same without the one way system. :twisted:

Re: Hazard warning sign on Dual Carriageway

Good idea, Johyn. I fear I am being rather constructive about route to and from shops. On Friday it was round the corner to the farm shop and back via the Berkshire Downs. Yeh its a real bgr trying to navigate with map whilst driving on ones own. Hopefully the authorities will take this in to accou...

Yeh, I can see little problem with the bikes, except handing logb...

Re: Social distancing and observing

Looks like Roadsmart CEO Mike Quinton has some idea that both bike and car observations/tests will be on the cards once distancing is relaxed. Can't see this myself until a vaccine available, we will have to WAIT and see. Hope groups don't feel pressured to resume observing too soon.

Re: Empty roads
