I NOTE Paul Hepworth's remarks (August 12) about how easy it is to get to the Yorkshire Air Show by bike and I expect many may take his advice.
However, it is difficult to carry a wife, one or more children and possibly a picnic as well if you have only got one bike, and it does not provide much shelter if it rains.
As for his remark about car doors being opened in his path, perhaps he should turn to page 14 of the Highway Code; Item 52, Leave plenty of room when passing parked vehicles and watch out for doors being opened in your path.
Finally, I hope it was not Paul who I observed swerving in and out of the crowd on a bike during the display.
