You are talking about organised events open to the public where litter is inevitable.
I was talking about everyday travel.

I was doing no such thing.

Yes you were

I was talking about litter cast into the
public envirom=nment by cyclists.

No, you were trying to blame utility cyclists for the litter dropped by competitors in organised events.
I suppose you think IOM TT racers should stop and place their Rip-off visors in the nearest bin.

That is not "inevitable"; it is an anti-social choice made by the
cyclists concerned.

London Marathon again, should the runners have to hold on to their empty water bottles or should the organisers arrange cleanup after the event.

I do not dump litter. Do you?

Unlike motorists I dispose of me litter responsibly.


Littering is never acceptable.
It's an offence.
Cyclists: take your rubbish home where it probably won't look out of place.

How childish.

Quite right - cyclists wantonly dropping litter are behaving like
badly-behaved children.

Maybe they get their example from motorists who think this is acceptable behaviour.


Their litter would look much less out of place back at their homes than
it would strewn along the highway or on a village green.

I'm glad we agree.

How childish.
