Cyclists "strongly advised" not to go on bike ride next Monday

[sunnydaytoday0]

Ok they've now U-turned on their advice (not the first organisation to do so after the inevitable backlash) but why on earth would British Cycling think this was a good idea?

"British Cycling strongly recommends that anybody out riding their bike on the day of the state funeral does so outside of the timings of the funeral service and associated processions, which will be confirmed later this week"

I'm planning on taking a picnic up a hill with DH and our dog on Monday during the funeral, and I think this is what HRH would've wanted seeing as it's what she loved to do in her spare time.
I would also consider cycling, DIY, exercise, gardening, watching Netflix, baking, clearing the loft, life admin and all other manner of fun stuff that I need and like to do on my days off.
