Cyclists v drivers? They're often the same people.

Much has been written about a war between cyclists and
drivers, as if the two groups were such polar opposites that
they could never cross in a Venn diagram. But according to new
research, people who cycle the most are likely to own at least
two cars.

Regular cyclists – those who cycle at least once a week – are
also disproportionately likely to read broadsheet newspapers,
be well educated, have a household income of at least £50,000
per year and shop at Waitrose, claims the latest Mintel
report, Bicycles in the UK 2010. In addition, they are twice
as likely to be men as women.

I just use a bike mostly because it is most convenient, I love
the fresh air and feeling of movement and exercise, and ....
Owning a car and being rich has nothing to do with it.

Of course, money is irellevant.

Is it?

So why did you mention it?

I didn't. I just showed you a report from a link, which was
basically the reporter's opinions.
That's an entertaining wriggle.

State where I mentioned money!
You quoted a foul mouthed **** faced whining little journalist.
Journalists should never ever be trusted.

That is why when I watch news programmes I concentrate on the rolling
ticker=tape at the bottom. That is just news without comment. I can do
without the comments and bloody interviews and all that.

Anybody who pays for news is contributing to the slimy little ****es..
One day soon they'll all go out of business.

Unfortunately no.
There e two many people hanging on every word of foul commentary they
can that the news stations make heaps from the associated advertising
they can sell.


I disagree. A lot of them are starting to beg for payment or stopping us
using adblockers, they're in financial trouble.
