Empirical. Almost everyone I speak to has been hit, or knows of someone
who has been hit on the pavement by a cyclist.

This is his entire message [1]: nothing added, nothing taken away. TrollB
must find a very small number of peop^W other trolls to speak to under the
GLA's bridge!

I know of someone who has been hit on the pavement by a cyclist - I read
about it on Usenet. It would not surprise me if this was true of large
numbers of people I speak to (not all of them read Usenet, but possibly
some of read the newspaper articles that some of the Usenet posts were
quoting).

Yes, interesting that you picked it out and started a sub-thread with
it. What was wrong with the original?

AAMOI do you agree with me?

I have been hit by a cyclist on the pavement - I exited my drive-way
and he piled into the side of me. No injuries to anyone.

I have been hit by cars in the road more often than I have been hit by
cyclists on the pavement, however, (and they have caused me more
injury) so this obviously proves we must have a zero tolerance policy
and ensure that no cars are allowed on the road, ever.
