    Dear Colin
    Was pleased to meet you, albeit briefly, at Monday’s rally. I was the guy on the mobility scooter , now featured on your webpage and Twitter.

    On my way back home in the dark I drove along the footpath which links Rotherwick Way and Field Way and encountered a dangerous hazard. One of the oak posts supporting the iron poles which separate cycling and pedestrian lanes had rotted at the base and broken causing the poles to lean into the cycle lane and risk impaling a cyclist (or scooter user !). I realigned the poles as well as possible but repair is needed urgently. In fact all the posts have similarly rotted. As a short term measure, maybe the poles should simply be removed.

    Kind regards,

    Dick Martin

    Ps I tried to email you conventionally but failed to elucidate your emai laddress
