The pleasures of illegal cycling

For example why would you start a crosspost to unnc of this thread, other than possibly a desire to invalidate any discussion you subsequently take part in? There was no need for this crosspost. It serves no useful purpose. It will not adversely affect Chapman's candidacy as a moderator, it will adversely affect your prospects. It will also ensure that fewer people will take you seriously when it comes to a vote. I can only assume that you are either trolling or, as has been suggested previously, that you have some form of mental incapacity. Why thank you Filth - I see Chapman made a fool of you - and that is saying something. If you can't get the better of him in any debate then you're not worth a light. How's the job hunting? -- The BMA (British Medical Association) urges legislation to make the wearing of cycle helmets compulsory for both adults and children. The evidence from those countries where compulsory cycle helmet use has already been introduced is that such legislation has a beneficial effect on cycle-related deaths and head injuries. This strongly supports the case for introducing legislation in the UK. Such legislation should result in a reduction in the morbidity and mortality associated with cycling accidents. |

Judith added the crosspost for a reason fathomable only to her. I've already commented on her stupidity. |

I think you will find that the original post in this thread is from me, and was not cross-posted. Judith cross-posted, So did you. Yes, to clarify the reference to illegality, which is to do with UCI and their byzantine and ever-changing definition of what constitutes a bicycle. which is why I said ere the reference came from, in case anyone was interested. You could have removed unnc from your reply, you chose not to. What, post the clarification only to the group which doesn't need it? Could do, I guess. Not sure why that would be a good idea, though.

If you hadn't I wouldn't have seen it. Trying to blame someone else for your conscious decision is bizarre. Judith cross-posted, So did you.

It's of no relevance to unnc. which is why I said ere the reference came from, in case anyone was interested. You could have removed unnc from your reply, you chose not to.

Perhaps then you could have remained quiet, if there was no need to post. As I say, you are the architect of your misfortune with regard to "Judith". |
