launched after a woman's body was Police were called to

the sheltered housing complex at Carnarvon Place following reports

of a domestic incident. A woman found inside was

so called Boris bikes in London. The idea was to spend some of

a ?3 million government grant on a But the New Forest National Park

Authority says in the wake of large`scale cycle events,

a major anti`cycling sentiment has I think it would be awkward to

manage and I think there's enough cycling going on at the moment

without encouraging too much more. There are far too many bikes,

they ride two or three abreast and You have to be careful

because it can be dangerous to cycle on the roads, but there are plenty

of cycle paths. So no,

I wouldn't see it as a problem. People should be going slowly anyway

because there are horses in the local area

so I don't think a few more bikes on The report, which will be voted

on by members of the New Forest National Park Authority on Tuesday,

your weather forecast. We finally saw some brightness this

afternoon and the wind picked up as well. A breezy night to come. Any

showers will die away, one or two towards the south coast, but are

largely dry night. We'll see some clear skies. I suspect in rules
