Default Reliable Transport


I saw plenty of cars broken down by the side of the road over the Violence Promoting Holiday, but no bicycles.
Why is that?
I thought cars were a viable form of transport and pedal cycles were not.

Just for once you thought correctly.

I see quite a few bicycles that must be broken down, they are on the
back or the roof of cars, some of them seem to be missing a wheel.

I made a complaint to the local cycling club about the members breaking the
law.
The leader of the cycling club said that illegally cycling down a ginnel
where cycling was clearly prohibited and illegally cycling on the footpath
was safer than cycling on what is a quiet road.
I very politely question his judgment and am still waiting for his reply. I
don't really expect a reply as I have politely shown him to be a stupid
****.
Unfortunately I know a few cyclists. Not one of them has an IQ bigger than
my shoe size.

I assume you have never driven even 0.001 mph above the speed limit.

Silly cyclist.

Cheap snip, but you are a silly cyclist.

Here you are, I'll put my post back:

I have never used a road vehicle on the footpath or down a ginnel.
A bicycle is classed as a road vehicle. I bet that you did not know that.

I take that as a real great compliment coming from YOU. Especially from YOU.
I have no ****ing interest in looking good in YOUR eyes.
After all I ride a bicycle.
And we all know what YOU think of bicyclists. You think they are the
****witted pits of humanity.
And because it is YOU who think that, that is an extremely great
compliment.
We must be doing something right.

My bike is a very reliable delightful convenient economical viable form
of transport.
A bicycle is a machine. Like any machine, it needs to be looked after
and maintained in good repair. This goes also for those NOx spewing
monstrosities which you and your ilk belch forth every day.

Assuming you know (admittedly perhaps not the safest of assumptions),
what on earth are you talking about?
