DYLAN HARTLEY: SHRINK SAVED ME (News Of The World)

They don't make 'em like that any more – a school caretaker has revealed that he's ridden the same bike every day for nearly 60 years.

Owen Hook, 72, paid 36 monthly instalments of 10 shillings for the top-of-the-range Raleigh after buying it from a local department store in 1953.

He has ridden the bike every day since, either commuting to work or heading to the shops near his home in Haddenham, near Ely, Cambs.

Three-speed Raleigh is an 'absolute beauty'

A congestion charge needs to be implemented in York, a regional spokesman for the CTC has argued.

Paul Hepworth, the North Yorkshire spokesman for the CTC, says the city has made huge efforts to stave off gridlock by encouraging car-sharing, short-term car hire, Park&Ride services and installing priority measures for public transport.

He also says that a grant from Cycling England will enable the completion of York’s cycling network.

Stick not carrot is needed to stop gridlock
