Cycling
without Public Liability cover is as silly as driving without 3rd Party - join
Bicycle NSW for PL insurance, so that all Muggs are better protected. |
![](../../_themes/blank-stuff/ablbull1.gif) |
When
passing a fellow Mugg, always provide a metre clearance. If you
can't, or are passing on the inside, call out loudly eg. "passing inside
tight" etc. |
