Son, you're going to have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming aircrew. You can't do both.

The aircraft limits are only there in case there is another flight by that particular aircraft. If subsequent flights do not appear likely, there are no limits.

The reason it was really hard to spot was the colours they used. ie dark bear with dark basketball players.

I know they were trying to promote 'spot the cyclist' so I think that the target audience should also be the riders and not just the drivers. More riders might get noticed if they wear hi-viz tops and use lights (especially flashing LEDs), even in daylight. Had that bear walked through the middle wearing a hi-viz top, I bet most people would spot it

What's the message here though? Presumably it would be when approaching people playing basket ball in the street, you should be extra vigilent and on the look out for moon walking bears so you don't hit them with your car..... Perhaps Prof. Janoos could advise

I watched it twice and its total bollocks. There's no bear just some bloke in a bear suit. Rubbish. And another thing since when did bears ride cycles? Huh? No wonder my taxes are so high with kind of thing going on. Whatever next? Pah..

yup and they need to make lots more cyclists aware of a thing called "The Highway Code" and the legalities of just a flashing LED as night illumination.

I get really fecked off when I see fellow cyclists with nothing more than a pissy little led flasher on their bag.

helloooooo if you make yourself visible then you reduce the chance of geting knocked off your bike

Too right. If they can't train the bear to moonwalk they shouldn't get a bloke to dress up like one.

Very true, single solid light and flashing one. A single solid red light is next to useless in traffic.
