Supermodel Elle ‘The Body’ Macpherson was criticised this week for cycling in London with her son on her handlebars.
Elle was heavily criticised after being photographed cycling in London with her five-year-old son Aurelius Cy sat on her handlebars. Jo Stagg, a spokesman for the Royal Society For The Prevention Of Accidents said, “It is both illegal and dangerous to carry more than one person on a bike that's not designed for it,” adding, “There are issues with balance and it is easy to fall off. A child on the front handlebars could affect the cyclist's ability to see, steer and balance, and we would not advise parents to carry children in this way – ever."
