See http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspap...142273,00.html "The new trains carry only between three and six." Not round here they don't, two is the maximum on Arriva. Since there are three cyclists in the family, this makes it rather awkward. Alan |

Another Times article about cycling and trains
wafflycat directed us to:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspap...142273,00.html I particularly liked: "Fear not, rail companies say, for we have taken bold initiatives with councils to provide bike storage in stations. You can hire a bike when you get where you are going." snip "Promising that you can hire another bike “when you get there” is like offering to substitute your wife of five years for a prostitute. It may sound tempting but you never know what you may get, you’re bound to feel guilty afterwards and, chances are, your balls will ache." I think that makes the point rather well. -- Danny Colyer URL:http://www.colyer.plus.com/danny/ Subscribe to PlusNet URL:http://www.colyer.plus.com/referral/ "He who dares not offend cannot be honest." - Thomas Paine |
