    QUOTE:
    A man banned from cycling has been jailed for 11 months after he
    travelled to a probation meeting by bike.

    Jake Carter, 27, was given a Criminal Behaviour Order in November which
    banned him from using a bike or e-scooter in Chelmsford, Essex.

    He breached the order twice, and on one occasion cycled to his
    appointment with the Probation Service.

    Sgt Graham Thomas, of Essex Police, said Carter showed a "complete lack
    of respect".

    Carter, of Meadgate Avenue, Great Baddow, admitted breaching the order
    at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court.

    Essex Police said the ban had been imposed on the defendant after he
    assaulted "multiple" women in the city after cycling up to them.

    I'll be looking out for a few more cycling stories and will always stay on-topic for this group. I cannot guarantee that all stories will be as
    up to the minute as that one.

    An excellent modus, posting cycling-related reports in a cycling group! It makes a welcome change for the group to have such on-topic items.
