The number of leisure and competitive cyclists using the A422 through Chicheley, and on the A509and local rural roads, is increasing. Cycling clubs organise events when many riders, often in a large group, pass through Chicheley. This can cause frustration to motorists, but in reality only means a short delay.
In the interests of safety, the following information on safe overtaking of cyclists by motorists was issued at the last Parish Meeting.
A short delay to overtake a cyclist safely is a much better option than overtaking dangerously, which could cause injury and result in prosecution. Patience please!
