untrained young cyclist out in a gang failed to safely negotiate a junction.
Very sad, but predictable.

I was driving down an A road last week when I came across three young lads
cycling in the centre of the two way road and weaving about, I followed till
the road widened and then undertook them, there was lots of hooting and
shouting from the vehicles behind as they forced their way through past the
cyclists, why on Earth the cyclists were in the middle of the road was
impossible to fathom.

Note to ****wits:

If someone posts about a cyclist running into a pedestrian, start a
new thread about a motorist running into a cyclist. This will provoke
a series of amusing reflex responses from the trolls.



Ho, ho, ho - how we laughed - it was so unexpected:

Pyscholist Rule Number 6a

If people are continually getting the better of you in arguments - fall back on the "But what about motorists, they are much worse ....".
Respond to a post - or start a new thread with some irrelevant item.
It does no good to the actual argument - but it shows you up as a real prat - and hence you are living up to the psycholist creed.

If I'm being honest, I don't recall seeing very much in this group which
would make me want to cycle more (or take it up if I didn't already).
There's no rational argument or examples of how cycling is enjoyable,
it's just a long repetitive list of why every other form of transport is
bad, to make cycling look like the natural choice for anyone with half a
brain.


Welcome to the atmosphere you and other idiots like you created.


I didn't create it, it was like this when I got here. But thanks for your
post which I'm sure has nothing to do with what's going on elsewhere.

A simply remarkable safety record.
