Law breaking cyclist
Simply unbelievable.
Coming home from work today over Rochester Bridge. Two lanes in each direction and a cycle lane. Central divide. As I approached I saw a sign saying "cycle lane closed" - they are repairing part of the bridge. In the centre of the bridge they have erected scaffolding which extends over the cycle lane - leaving a very narrow gap. Another sign says "cyclists dismount". Cyclist rode straight through the gap in the scaffolding. To be fair, he couldn't have seen the signs - the ****wit was traveling in the wrong direction against the flow of traffic. -- Dave - Cyclists VOR. "Many people barely recognise the bicycle as a legitimate mode of transport; it is either a toy for children or a vehicle fit only for the poor and/or strange," Dave Horton - Lancaster University |

If he was a Native American he would get to 'count coup' for that act. By the way, it counts double if he was sitting backwards on the saddle and wearing squaw's clothes. -------------------------------------- "For young braves the main purpose of making war was to count coup that is gain war's honours which was the way to fame and advancement. There was comparatively little prestige in killing an enemy. After all a coward could shoot a man from ambush without any danger to himself. but to ride or walk up to the foe while he was still alive and armed, touching him with one arm or a special coup stick brought great honour because a man risked his life doing it." |
