Royal Mail planning to phase out bicycles, petition to stop them

Oh dear, that is indeed stupid. A lot of posties who like riding a bike for work will be upset, too.

in Wimbledon, there's a lovely bloke who's about 55, I often seen him every now and then, when I talk to him a couple years ago, he told me the main reason he become a posties is that he get to ride a bike while getting paid to do it, he actually have the same bicycle that he lovingly cared for and use outside work too.

Recently, he was laid off because he doesn't have a driving license.

30 odd years delivering mail and already sacked simply because he didn't want to drive, pretty sad isn't it?
