Has anyone seen the 'Carcraft' advert were it shows a family on a tandem towing a trailerbike. The
advert seems to imply that you only own a bike because you can't afford a car. It's
pre-conceptions like this, which feed peoples' ignorance of the value of cycling as a valuable
form of transport and a healthier lifestyle.

The radio versions also say that your trade-in car can be any condition and it doesn't need an MOT,
which would be illegal if you drove it there.

Unless you have pre-booked an MoT appointment at Carcraft...

I`m sure the AA did some research on motorists perceptions of cyclists and found that contrary to
the beliefs held by most drivers, regular cyclists tended to be better off financially by a
substantial margin.
