Was he on a brompton?

I don't feel you stand corrected at all.

I've been using bluetooth headphones for quite a while. Quality is slightly compromised, but you certainly don't need to worry about the connection.

At least 55 people on Reddit saw that image and said "yes, I like that, in fact I like it so much I'm going to give it an upvote".

Is there more info on how the police handled the case?

That Cannondale is an affront to nature.

I was riding along Stamford hill this evening. Fortunately the batteries didn't fall out of my rear light this time.

Did I tell you I got my crack drilled in the end? After that I got a man to fill it in, then had it reamed.

It looks a bit messy and discoloured now, but it rides perfectly and I can get it as tight as I like without worrying about slippage.

I'm not going to let you get away with that.

Not cycling specific.

Apologies if this has already been done in this thread, but is anyone making women's cycling jeans yet?

My swrve jeans attracted much interest from some friends I was talking to last night, but had to tell them that afaik swrve, levis and rapha only make cycling jeans for men.

How much room do those cyclists give when overtaking? To this day, I have never seen one give "a car's room".

Jesus fucking christ.

You might want to fuck off to petrolheads or cyclechat.

Massive demon with hammer is stupid. Tall knight fellow is clever. Be clever.

Also, if an enemy isn't blocking your progress, you don't have to fight them yet. You can always come back later when you're more powerful.

It's not pandering to them - it's simply reflecting the fact that many people are quite stupid or at least can't be bothered to make the effort not to act stupidly. If one dumb fuck doesn't cycle like a twat, and as a result another dumb fuck doesn't get to justify conduct which might kill or maim me, then I'm all for people not cycling like a twat. On that, and many other grounds.

Pandering to them would be tolerating people when they start going all 'cyclists are all this and that'.

Pandering to them would be having it in for shouty camera users because you think they make you look bad.

I don't cycle too much like a twat because I'm not too much of a twat.

^ agreed in some cases, they do seem to go looking for trouble and some overreact to the most minor of infringements.

It's a shame origamist took his videos down as they really were great. I think he's on here, but haven't seen him about for a while...

Origamist moved to Manchester. Was hoping to run into him when I was working up there as apparently we shared some commute, but I think he is one of those 'gets up early' types.

yer man trafficdroid does like a bit of the gay-hating.

Someone brought this up before, but then someone else countered it. Haven't seen any evidence of this.

Same logic, innit.

Not really, no. It's a method of transport which I choose to use. The only time it's relevant is whilst I'm cycling, a time when other road users are forced to make a snap judgement call about how to treat me; if/when to pass me, how much room to give me, how fast to pass me etc.

These decisions will be based (hopefully) on their knowledge and understanding of the highway code and in some cases on their previous experiences (both positive and negative) with other cyclists. I'd rather he hadn't just had some cunt on a bike jump a red in front of him or almost knock a granny over on a pedestrian crossing.

It is exactly that logic.

Bigoted Attitudes towards black people all being criminals, Muslims all being terrorists, cyclists all being rogue road users doesn't change by black people stopping committing crimes, Muslims all abandoning terrorism, cyclists all stopping rljing, Dutch people all stopping eating mayonnaise and women getting back in the kitchen. They stop by society deciding that being an ignorant, judgemental bigoted fuck isn't acceptable.

I've seen this kind of thing happen on many forums across all sorts of interest groups.

The saddest thing? They always get away with it.

again. fuck you.

Seconded. Seriously, fuck you.

What is it with some cyclists having such a beef against people who use cameras? It makes no difference to your life, if anything the convictions they help secure probably improve it.

Err how do i reveal spoilers?

Not sure if this is the best thread to post this in, but, WAC.

Going to be that person who recommends rack and panniers, or saddle bag. Take the weight off your back when riding.
