Bike Week's thrilling climax in York

Yesterday saw a cycle parade through the streets of the historic city following a special service for cyclists at York Minster, while the racecourse played host to a range of bicycle themed attractions over the weekend, with an added feature being the arrival of a prototype Olympic torch on Saturday

Yes, please find a special place in your prayers for anyone who cycles in York and has to put up with infrastructure like this.
