Undies in a bunch

What wads them (undies) for me is...cyclists on the footpath...esp those a holes with decent bikes/gear hammering up the footpath anytime...or those helmetless lightless a holes on crapola bikes on footpaths at night. I'm talking built up inner city paths, outside cafes/shops etc, where the people are, not yer outer suburbs in the early hours. I think the impact of some of these folk, both literally (on pedestrians) and figuratively (perception of cyclists) is far worse than the people who cruise the red light once in a while. We gotta reclaim (or claim) the road, not invade the footpath. Back in my box now, I done said it 🙂

and unfortunately, what can you do about it

the only more stoopid thing i see are people with helmets not on their heads but their handlebars... how would you explain that to the doctor?

I think the helmet on the bike is a halfassed attempt to "wear" a helmet without wearing a helmet 🙄

Whilst "reclaiming the road" today, a bus almost squished me. Suddenly the footpath don't look quite so bad heh heh 😄

I read the title and thought this thread was going to be about wearing underwear in group rides.

Then I remembered, this isn't Bikeforums 🙂

Saw Stephen Pate and Troy Clarke go to town on a bus one day on Beach Rd after he thought forcing a bunch into the gutter was a good idea.

Those Zefal HPX alu pumps can do quite a bit of damage...
