They may (in the main) be so *now*, but the man who used to call to collect my grandmother's Prudential money each week was respectable, law-abiding, considerate, pleasant and even wore bicycle clips on his suit trousers. |

Now they really are scum. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crim...-a3604036.html http://www.manchestereveningnews.co....-cars-11352492 |

Perhaps the riders could have been more sensitive to the situation but similarly there are many people that are over obsessed with the idea there is some sort of difference between walking and riding slowly. |

Come on! the cyclists were bloody disrespectful. There's no other way to paint it. |

It the road was closed to through traffic, the correct thing to do was to wait until the end of the ceremony or find another way round. They did not do that but people want to make an issue out of them not getting off to walk. I have driven through a ceremony where they obviously didn't get permission to close the road. Should I and all the other drivers going through have got out and pushed? |

Should I and all the other drivers going through have got out and pushed? You're attitude stinks. I would have immediately dismounted and so would any other members of my family. It's cyclists like you that give decent cyclists a bad name. |
