CYCLISTS have been warned to be aware of the speeds they are riding at.
It comes after a group were caught travelling at nearly 40mph on a 30mph road on Dartmoor.
Devon and Cornwall's Road Policing Team took to Twitter on Sunday to raise awareness of the issue. They issued a plea to cyclists to make sure they are mindful of their speed.
The group was stopped by the police and offered appropriate words of advice. However as there is no speed limit for cyclists, no further action was taken.
The force's tweet said: "Cyclists, please be mindful of your speeds and just how this will affect you in the event of a collision. This group today on Dartmoor observed travelling at near 40mph on a 30mph restricted road. All stopped and offered appropriate words of advice."
