How do you know?

For all you (can) know, he (assuming it was a "he") might have no
driving licence and just be a mere chav-cyclist.

‘Blue on blue’ in the context of your world view would be cyclists beating
up cyclists.

Not that nobody is looking for the innocent cyclist.

Ho hum - there goes the neighbourhood.
=============================A small village in Yorkshire has been ranked near the bottom of a list of the best places to live in the UK.

Thorpe Willoughby, in Selby, North Yorkshire has been placed 1362 out of 1372 places on the list by Garrington Property Finders. This is down 111 places since the last list was published by the website last year.

The list ranks each area surveyed by its natural beauty rank, its quality of life, architectural beauty, green rank and its price band. Thorpe Willoughby came near the bottom in each of these rankings.

With a population of only 2,725 residents, according to the 2011 census data, the small town is not on most people’s radars.

According to a brief survey of the area, Thorpe Willoughby has only one pub, The Fox, which is rated highly on TripAdvisor at four stars out of five. There is also a primary school and a village hall alongside a number of smaller shops.

However, as already mentioned, the village was not rated on its shops and pubs, but its beauty. The area was ranked 1300 in natural beauty, 1253 in architectural beauty and 1294 in its green rank.

The only area it was ranked higher in was its quality of life, which was rated at 579 out of 1372. The average house price was also high as it is in many areas of the country, according to the list the average family home in the area cost between £350,000 and £650,000.

Nowhere in Yorkshire made it into the top ten of this list and almost every single entry in the top ten were for towns and villages in the south of the country. Only one area was in the north, Caton in Lancashire came fourth on the list.

However, according to Garrington Property finders their list was actually meant to rank some of the best places to live in the UK and Thorpe Willoughby only came at the bottom of this list. They said: “Our annual Best Places to Live report compares nearly 1400 of the highest ranking locations across England and Wales. By definition, everywhere on the list is a good place to live, and they all have good access to superfast broadband.

"Every year we analyse reams of publicly available data to rank each city, town and village according to four criteria - natural beauty, architectural beauty, quality of life and environmental credentials.

“We celebrate the places with the highest scores by writing about them on our website and in the media. Of course some places score less highly, but this is in no way a criticism.

“Thorpe Willoughby performed very well in two categories. It ranked in the top 14% of locations for air quality (based on NO2 levels) and in the top 16% of locations with a high proportion of households with access to outside space."
