What does the team think?
Justipoo's is wriggling again....
You posted that I had clearly stated that I had ridden past the hotel on a bike. I did not even mention a bike. I had just arrived on a ferry in a two seater convertible car with a passenger who also has a licence. We were going to Hertfordshire. No bikes would have fitted in or on the car. So, a known cyclist, posting on a cycling group uses the exact phrase "I rode and drove back and forth several times". Now, since this cyclist also claims to be a teacher of English & an all round expert, we must assume the use of both terms "rode" and "drove" mean different things. Otherwise he would have said "I drove back and forth" and not "I rode and drove back and forth" which clearly means he did both. Since he fails to answer questions about what he 'rode' - do we assume this is a monumental wriggle & he is desperately trying to divert attention -SOP? |

Is it possible to ride in or on anything other than a bicycle? Remember I was in a two seater convertible car with a passenger (with a licence) and a full boot and no bikes. |

I take it that he is trying to avoid saying, in the weaselly way that cyclists have: that he drove past in a car (or other vehicle), swapped seats and/or vehicles and rode past as a passenger. I do not believe that he did either (rode or drove), cyclists are far too mean to waste petrol that way, and far too cowardly to go near a possible conflict with a man. |

As you correctly post, Dave was wrong when he posted that I 'clearly stated' that I rode past on a bike. |

You can ride in a car, on a bus or train (or horse or motorcycle, or anything at the fairground, or maybe a boat, not so sure about flying things). |

Why not just answer the question : what was it that you "rode"? -- Wearing a cycle helmet will not kill you. |

I said 'rode and drove' to make a distinction between 2 different activities. |
