Letter: Pavement cyclists

Sir: As the recent recipient of a nine-stitch head-wound caused by a pedestrian lurching into the road in front of me without looking, I wonder whether you are able to redress the balance by quoting figures for cyclists killed or hurt by pedestrians. The level of danger on the roads we cyclists choose daily to face makes us more "Lycra loonies" than "Lycra Louts", I fear.
