BikeRadar and Fiat's promotion for better sharing of the roads has built up steam on twitter today, with #letscleartheair generating plenty of feedback.
We asked our followers to tweet their suggestions as to how cyclists and motorists can better share our roads. using the #letscleartheair hashtag. On offer were prizes for the best tweets as well as the chance to win a coaching day at Manchester Velodrome courtesy of Fiat Punto GBT.
Here's a sample of what you've sent us. Keep them coming...
Selene Yeager @FitChick3 I'm a mom. You might want to push me off the road. But my daughter wants me to come home. See the human under the helmet.#letscleartheair
Andy Valentine @MrAndyValentine #letscleartheair Best tip I can give fellow cyclists is simply to indicate early. We're harder to spot, so let's make sure we're seen in time

GoTriangle @gotriangle MT @riersonphoto: Treat the cyclist in front of u as if they were ur son, daughter, husband or wife. They ARE someone's.
Andy Willetts @andywilletts @bikeradar Drivers- Before you pull out in front of an oncoming cyclist, think: "Would I do this if it was a lorry coming". #letscleartheair
