    So the plague City of Nottingham and 3 boroughs is into tier 3 and ‘advice guidance’ says not to go out of your tier 3 area... particularly into a lower tier... I live 100 yards from the border with a tier 2 area and it’s my route out to the countryside back roads where I always ride...as I can’t now go that way the only other way is the busy built up urban conurbation of Nottingham so no fun there. So I wonder at what point the ‘advice/guidance is interpreted by the police as sufficient justification to tell me I’m breaking the rules by going out of my village and get a fine. .. anyone else see it like this?

    It has become a civil liberties issue with no solid scientific justification. Disobey sensibly.

    Rules are there for a reason.

    If you break them there are consequences.

    So my best advice is



    Don't get caught. ;)

    I want Scotland to go into full lockdown again! It was bloody brilliant having all the roads of southern Argyll and Cowal to myself to do whatever I wanted with my bikes! Another serious landslide at the Rest and Be Thankful would be handy too as that would really empty a lovely little 20 mile circuit for me to race around on.

    I have moved to the country in preparation of LOCKDOWN II. Far enough to avoid the plagues of lycra-loonies infesting the back roads.

    Well when a pathologist says, ‘contradictions in the (Covid) data have no biological explanation’ that’s a scientific way of saying the numbers are s**t.

    Not surprising that politicians & advisors ignoring their own rules makes us so cross that we are less likely to follow even sensible restrictions...they need a jolly good kick up the backside! ... bike wise at least I won’t now risk getting into trouble heading 100 yards down the road from where I live as the whole of Nottinghamshire is suddenly going into tier 3 !

    Meanwhile the lawyers are earning their dosh. In court tomorrow challenging the entire legal basis of lockdown as being beyond the Government’s powers. There is no general right in UK law to confine the populace.

    In Germany? the entire validity of the PCR test is going before the courts.
