Fact of life is ….. if you work you pay tax proportionate to your income end of.
Self employed or not unless of course you want the Inland revenue on your back & a holiday @ HMP . :wink:
In the area I live in we have a huge networks of cycle/footpaths. There aren’t many places in the town that you can’t get to using them & most routes avoid using the road all together.
Like most things in life it’s about common sense. Bike on footpaths aren’t a problem really if the bike user remembers pedestrians have right of way. :)
