Unleash The Nade Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I wonder if this’ll hit the headlines and get as much coverage as the one pedestrian who was recently killed by a cyclist ? http://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/latest-news/black-week-britains-cyclists-spate-road-fatalities-354493?utm_content=manual&utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_term=cyclingweekly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you pedal like a dickhead and play games on the tarmac you might get squashed. It's the reason we formed the C.A.S.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always resort to attacking my ex-wife when you lose the heed. I promise you now I'll never stoop so low and make allegations about your family. There are ways to counter your anger.

Deal with the problems properly - cycling isn't working. Happy for you to come up with the evidence (and assume their families would be too), that these 5 fatalities were caused as a result of them pedalling like dickheads or playing games. ” Loose the heid”, erm nah, I just pity you that because your ex left you for a leaner, fitter cyclist you’re on a crusade of hatered against all cyclists.

Deal with the problem properly That's about the 5th time you've been unable to spell "lose". That's about the 50th time you've brought up my ex-wife and this bizarre claim she left me for a cyclist. Rest assured with the divorce settlement she received she'll never be forced into cycling and credit cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a decent divorce settlement right enough, hence the reason you have to drive about in a Kia Ceed Take your time coming up with the evidence from your earlier claim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Thing is, threads like these are a reflection of some truly ignorant attitudes in society. Take this case - https://amp.timeinc.net/cyclingweekly/news/latest-news/cyclist-left-broken-spine-rugby-tackled-angry-driver-354568?source=dam A lorry driver, angry at a lassie riding a bike stopped his lorry to get out and rugby tackle her. He broke her spine. It's this whole "them and us" attitude perpetrated by trolls online and quite frankly, cretins on the streets, that's leading to people being maimed and killed.

statts1976uk Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The thing is statistically speaking, a real survey not made up rubbish, that most adult cyclists are car drivers/owners too so they understand how a driver thinks and tries to avoid putting themselves into dangerous situations. Things like running red lights etc, 1% of cyclist caused accidents come from red lights and the same percentage of motorised vehicle caused accidents. https://www.cyclescheme.co.uk/community/featured/10-cycling-myths-uncovered https://www.theguardian.com/environment/blog/2010/aug/10/cycling-boom-survey https://www.sustrans.org.uk/sites/default/files/bike_life_edinburgh_2015.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbornbairn Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Sounds about right. I'd say the most annoying cyclists are teenage boys riding cheap Sports Direct mountain bikes in the dark with no lights - a world away from middle aged men who spend a fortune on their bike and are well aware of the risks on the road.

I almost hit one this morning on my way to work at 6.30am, no lights and dark clothing. Once I pulled up next to him at the traffic lights I saw he was just a young lad on a cheap bike probably in a rush not to be late but no excuses for not having lights though.He was the exception as everyone else had lights, reflective clothing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB 4.2 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 Popular music singer Ed Sheeran tweeting pictures of his broken arm after cycling into a motorcar. Potentially millions of pounds worth of lost concert revenue to save a tenner on a taxi. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
