Littering cyclists are their own worst enemy
 

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/e...t-spring-clean

Something needs to be done.

Shoot littering cyclists?

Harsh, but fair, some might think, but you are right; it's a problem
that needs to be addressed.

Mind you, the drivers who chuck cigarette packets, matches and other

imply.

You don't have to if you don't want to.

They are links direct to images and simply reading the URL (in each
case) will tell you all you need to know).

Littering is never acceptable.

Cyclists: take your rubbish home where it probably won't look out of place.
