That article was posted on April Fool's Day.

From the article:"What if participants go over the speed limit, we hear you ask? The CTM has it covered, with a fleet of XL Bully ‘pacer dogs’ on hand.

"The dogs, who were all rehomed by the CTM following the recent XL Bully ban, are specially trained to detect bicycle-shaped objects moving at speeds of 22mph or more, ensuring a tough deterrent for riders straying too far over the 20mph target."

My bad. It just popped up on my Google feed. I'm attempting to deleteit, but haven't succeeded so far.

April Fools jokes are not funny anymore, just too common now. On another note, back in the 70's we did car rallies that were timed courses where the winner was the driver that was closest to adhering to the speed limit on all the roads. Speed was not the winning factor, instead it was accuracy.
