1800 Seconds on Autism - Coronavirus Extra: 'How many times have you been hit by a car?'

Download Coronavirus Extra: 'How many times have you been hit by a car?'

Robyn has a new bike, something lots of people are turning to in lockdown to avoid public transport. She can't read maps or judge distance but has found ways to cycle safely - like using a "safety wing".

Jamie loves bikes but stays off-road because, when tired, he says he's not safe. Producer Emma is a bit shocked at how many times he's been hit by a car.

As always, they both also have sound advice for coping as the lockdown eases.

Since recording this episode, a new series of this podcast has been commissioned. You've told us we're particularly helpful at the moment so we don't want to keep you waiting too long. Episode 1 will arrive on your feed by the end of summer.
