Post by The Natural PhilosopherPost by charlesPost by Radio ManI don't know what all the fuss is about. Why don't "The
Motorists"
just cycle or walk instead? The "Motorists" who are too
old,
too fucked, too fat, too idle, or too up themselves to
walk or to cycle can get a taxi or use the fantastic,
efficient, reasonably priced public transport that the
wonderful Conservative party had the foresight to
deregulate and privatise for them.
Grow Up, Motorists!
I used to cycle for local journeys but I was knocked off
my bike -
receiving a badly broken arm - I lost my nerve after
that. Too many motorist who don't give adequate room when
passing.
On the roads rind here the LycraLouts™ insist on riding
down the center. They patently have no idea how to control
a bicycle accurately enough with anything less than a 1,5m
gap either side and more if they can arrange it, but of
course they never took a test, have no insurance , and
these days have effective immunity under the Law. Their
very saddles stink with the odour of sanctity of their non
carbon emittiung bicycles.
I hope you've got some sort of spittle guard on that

And leap in to mount an *emotional* attack on the people who
divulge them to you.
You wouldn't know a fact if it bit you on the arse.
Oh dear, more emotional fact free responses.

Darling boy, I made my career as a practising engineer. No a
BBC newscaster.
Machines respond to facts.
Not to idle opinions.
I cant make my car do another ten miles by promising it that I
will fill up at the next fuel station.
If my designs are not cosnsistent with the facts, they dont work.
On the roads rind here the LycraLouts™ insist on riding down

That is an actual fact.
They patently have no idea how to control a bicycle
accurately enough with anything less than a 1,5m gap
either side and more if they
can arrange it,
That is also a fact. They are the most selfish road users
ever. They have been told how scared they must be of cars but
how they can prosecute a driver who doesn't leave a meter gap,
which means they can render themselves impossible to overtake,
and they do. one mile tailbacks
but of course they never took a test,
Is a fact.

All perfectly legal. I thought you lot liked law and order, or
