Oh the fun and joy of not being grown up!

Indeed, when I was 14 I would cycle 15 miles a day, including school and
paper rounds. 38 years later I do 25 miles a day and now and again ride
down the streets I used to deliver papers, listening to the same music!
The tragedy is that I saw a figure yesterday on a pavement that looked
like a middle aged man with a stoop and a big pot belly. On close up, it
was a teenage boy. Terrible.

Sure it wasn't TMH?

Then why are only 2% of journeys made by bike?

Would it be that its slow, makes you sweaty & smelly, leaves you at the
mercy of the weather, is percieved to be dangerous and makes you look
like a ****?


Thank you for the great compliment and award of ****-looker.

Mens Dunlop 26" Mountain Bike £89.99
http://www.bargainbikes.net/mens_bikes.html so cheap even a UB40
like mole****** could afford one out of his Giro.

Absolutely, it makes you wonder why the so-called poor prefer to run
about in clapped out (but expensive to run) cars when they could
cycle for peanuts. I suspect that this might have more to do with a
twisted perception of social identity than with practicality and
intelligent decisions.

I suspect its because cars are fast, warm, dry, comfortable, safe,
convenient etc...

Eh Dave? :-)

****ed up again mole******. Every time you try to appear clever you ****
up. Educated beyond your natural intelligence.

I drive a van. No "twisted perception of social identity". More
practicality and intelligent decision.

Oh. BTW. Its leased to give me the maximum tax advantage as an allowable
business expense. Even more practical & intelligent.

The terms "bodge" derives from Middle English boccen, which means "to mend".
Mr Cwispin meant to say 'botch'.

Last June and July two were loaned to Lewisham teachers for a period
of 6 weeks. Those teachers, who used to drive to school, have now
bought their own bicycles and use it as a viable form of transport to
beat the south-east London traffic that makes driving in Lewisham
such a misery.

Excuse me but, who, in their right mind, would be daft enough to
drive in a heavily congested inner city area, on a regular basis?

Excuse me but, who, in their right mind, would be daft enough to tow a bike
trailer overloaded with compost, in a heavily congested inner city area,
during rush hour?

Oh. It was the Cwispin idiot.

So what do you drive the rest of the time? I do hope you are not
fiddling your taxes and are paying the appropriate benefit in kind tax
for private use of a business supplied vehicle and fuel.

Of course he fiddles his tax.

He is a scummy trader - from a scummy estate.

Cash-in-hand means no tax and plenty of welfare.
