Lively wee thread here, aye?
I have to come down on the side of the cyclists here...having developed my love of two wheels initially from the human-powered variety...
Many good points made - I agree that bunch riders should be courteous to other road users. That said, to all those frothing at the mouth about the 'farking cyclists sitting 4 abreast and yakking at 15km/hr' Is it really any different to coming up behind a slow tractor/lawnmower? Did you get as pissed off about that? Is it *really* any different? Hmmm...
All this *jealously* [] of the fact that bicycles are about the most efficient form of transport there is (I have 3). Quit moaning and get out there on the dusty treadly you've got lurking at the back of the gargre to remind yourself of what it's like! I daresay your moaning would be of a different nature then...(Just like if some of those cagers got out on a bike eh? [I]Then[I] they'd see it from a different perspective...)
It can and does happen; old flattie got clocked $150 for sneaking an illicit jump through a red light with the wrong kind of observers behind her.Originally Posted by Fish
