If you ask the good people of Bradwell what would be the most pointless shop to open in Bradwell I'm sure many would say a Hike and Bike shop. And, lo and behold there's one due to open.  No benefit at all to the village because we are lucky enough to have very few tourists.  One of the nice things about living in Bradwell is it's not Castleton or Hathersage, so here we go lets clog up our small winding roads with cyclists many of whom don't know it's illegal to cycle double and won't even move out of the way for cars which are trying to get past.  Great who said Bradwell couldn't get any worse?

Contrary to what Navio says, it is not illegal to cycle two abreast. However it is courteous for cyclists to go single file when motor traffic is trying to get past. In fact a bit more courtesy and mutual tolerance between cyclists and motorists would go a long way towards making life safer and more pleasant for all road users. The (ungrammatical) "Drive Safe, Cycle Safe"page on the Department for Transport website gives some points to consider:
