*** Cyclists on Trains

[Mich the Tester]

I think there's something a bit weird about anyone over the age of 15/16 who still rides around on a pushbike. You don't see grown adults sitting on the train wiling away their commute time by playing with an Action Man or a Slinky do you?

No but I'd recommend technical Lego for keeping one occupied on a long train journey; best reserve a seat with a table though.

I set fire to my action man.

There are enough Boris bikes in London and there is no reason whasoever to put their stupid bikes on the train.

What about the 75-99% of England (depending how you measure things) that isn't London?

Don't go to Cambridge then.

I commute with my (full size) bike. I get the 6:01 from Winchester to Basingstoke then the 06:27 from Basingstoke to Waterloo. In general I find that I get treated like crap by commuters who just push in front of me like I was invisible then moan when I "accidentally" run over their feet.

Recumbent?

Recumbent?

Ok, a little test. There is currently a recumbent bicycle chained up at Swindon station. What colour is it?

You can tell who the fat, red-faced wheezers are on this forum!

Probably the same ones that nearly cry when a cyclist breezes past them in traffice queues or, even more telling, move over to try and block the cyclist!

Usually - to vent their frustrated, flabby spleens - they crop up on forums spouting drivel about running cyclists over. Strange how none of the drivers ever accept my offer of a chat by the roadside when they scream like babies and start making random air-signals.

All talk, no balls.

You've just not met the right one yet. Give it time and you'll eventually get your smug self-righteous face kicked in.

Actually, I'm always amazed by the fat, red-faced slobs on the bikes desperately trying to give themselves a heart attack.

recumbent bicycles are for the socially inept
