It was. And to anybody with intelligence higher than their shoe size, it
was a description of a mugging...

There was a clue in the story as written (you have chosen to excise
the link).


Well, posts don't evaporate the moment after you have read them.


They do here (settings).

So when are you going to intervene in Mason's posts about motoring
offences?


Offences committed by motorists are often relevant. After all, cyclists
have to put up with their incompetence.


Everyone, pedestrians and licensed roar-users alike, feels the effects
of the incompetence, criminality and sometimes malice of cyclists. See
the post yesterday about pedestrian crossing lights. Think back to some
of the cases reported recently in the media.

But you are excelling yourself here - being a violent street robber is a
marker of competence on the part of a cyclist, is it?

Besides, when stupid people insist that a mugging is cycling related, it
is easy to tolerate "motorist" matters getting thrown back in their
face. SM's posts are fine by me.


Offences committed by cyclists are always relevant. After all, it is a
minority means of transport and therefore an aid to identification.
