Mine has been like that for a while.
E.g Pressing Enter for a New Line works in the editor but when you then Post, it is not formatted as such.

Simon, I think that article is wrong. They have always endorsed cycling as a means of daily exercise , indeed they cant actually stop it as for many its their primary means of transport.

This makes regulation of it pretty much impossible and we do have the cycling clubs out in the lanes on a Sunday minus jerseys and we do have people driving for miles to ride around parkland - to be fair I don't blame them, I wouldn't want to cycle round where I live and they're less likely to become a statistic off the roads.

I've been getting this for a while. Getting a bit frustrating, so now I type into Mac's text editor then paste onto here, which seems to make it then behave

Regardless of the British Cycling article being incorrect (or correct),  fantastic to see a NGB taking a pro-active stance and fighting the corner for its sport.

The cycling vs sailing analogy never stacks up .... a large percentage of people learn to ride bikes, a few even use them as one of their primary modes of transport.

Re formatting, it doesn't always do it and it sometimes does it in dinghy development but post on another section and it's OK.
