Southerners? There's no such radio station here in SA, and thankfully
very little of Jones. I believe he has a very short rant on one of the
morning TV shows.

Is there a transcript somewhere? I'd like to know more detail than that
before complaining.

As someone who moved from Sydney to Melbourne just over 3 years ago, I
think there are a lot more idiots cycling in Sydney than here. This may
have something to do with the fact that cycling in Melbourne is made
easier than in Sydney by (a) wider roads, (b) more bike paths, and (c)
[generally] more sane drivers. I used to commute in Sydney, about 40km
a day (from Balmain to Leichhardt, Five Dock, and Neutral Bay, depending
on the day), and was amazed at the stupidity of some cyclists. Whilst
its fair to say that any group of the population is going to have those
that give them a bad name, I think the couriers in Sydney city
especially are the ones that lead people to make claims such as the
above. Added to this is my assumption that there would be less cyclists
commuting in Sydney, and hence the proportion of couriers to commuters
is higher, and following on from my last statement so is the proportion
of menacing cyclists. If statements like that are qualified I dont see
anything wrong with it. The problem comes when its a "tar all with the
same brush".

my 2c.
