Default Bikers perform citizen’s arrest after spotting pickpocket steal war hero’s wallet

This is the moment a would-be thief was tackled by a group of bikers
after trying to steal a war veteran’s wallet as he sold poppies over the
weekend.

Well done, those bikers.

But were any of the [motor-]bikers riding bicycles?

Or was the criminal riding one?

Yes, that latter must be the answer. After all, otherwise, the story
would not be relevant in uk.r.c, would it?

The term 'bikers' refers to motorcyclists or cyclists.

In everyday terms? Really? Not so much, I suggest. The usual words for a
cyclist are "cyclist" or one of a number of others which I will not
usually repeat.

Do you say that the bikers mentioned in the report were cyclists on push
bikes?

My question was asked first, old chap: do *you* say that the bikers
mentioned in the report were cyclists on push bikes?

Be clear.

There may be a supplementary question or two.

Sorry, I should have added a question or two straightaway:

(a) What do you think the "M" in "Oxleathers M.C.C." stands for?

(b) Is this [picture link below] a fancy new kind of push-bike?

Did m/cyclists steal the SMIDSY acronym from cyclists, or was it vice versa?

What would you recognise the name "Oxleathers M.C.C." as meaning?

Do you say that it is, or might be, a push-bike riders' club?
