So, 'Woman cyclist raped by pedestrian' would be more acurate.

How?
The headline is: "Woman raped in Peterborough by passing cyclist".


It does but is plainly wrong unless you can describe a way that makes
"rape by passing cyclist" technically possible.


In what way is it not possible?


I was asking you to suggest how it could be technically possible. It's
possible, perhaps, to perform the act while cycling but I have little
doubt that it would require the lady concerned to be cooperative.

Let's just say that I won't be searching out dodgy sites to find
examples. If you disagree with the analysis, perhaps you have?

Unless his bike, his cycling and the fact that he is a cyclist is - in
your view at least, and that of Jester - irrelevant, whilst the fact
that the rapist cyclist's victim is a cyclist is not irrelevant?

Got it.

You might both want to think about honing your skills in logic.


That retort usually follows a lack of ability on your part.

In the meantime, let's all hope that this person is caught and brought to justice.


I have corrected your sentence.
