The cyclist who rides through the Mersey Tunnel at 4 in the morning on weekends. Can't believe the police let him do it and he must be pretty brave to do it anyhow. Most traffic at that time of day is cabs going well over the speed limit.
Mersey tunnel regulations allow us cyclists to ride through at certain times, ive done it a few timees on a sunday afternoon, take the dock exit at liverpol and dont use the entry barriers.
Been stopped once by a nioce police lady,who kindly pointed out her inspector had told her to have a word, she looked amazed when i told her i rode through it because i could.
Its also well lit, dry and very warm with litle wind, just a few idiots in vehicles who shout abuse at you and others who sound there horns.
