hehe...saw that a few years ago.

Does anyone here lean on cars? I've never actually seen it happen,
except of course couriers, but even then I've only seen them hanging on
to trucks or trams. Maybe I don't get out enough.

[censored], is this a legit Fiat ad? Ok, the cyclist maybe bit of a prat, but warning, warning, danger, danger, don't touch the petrol-driven penis extension.... 😠

I used to watch couriers get towed by trams up Collins St and think that
looked like an easy way to go, until the day I saw one hit something
slippery and nearly go under the tram, then swerve out from the tram and
nearly hit a car. It kind of lost its attraction after that.

Nop, because if someone did it to my car they'd be promptly introduced to
being horizontal. 🙂

I used to, until one day I came up to the back of a van, leaned over to the
corner of it, and by this stage was feeling a bit knackered and shut off my
brain for just a second, light changed green, van lurched forward about 1m,
I went straight over sideways and nearly under the wheels of the car behind
which had also started lurching forward.

Never again.

Seen it once - a luser roadie on Bridge Rd, Richmond.

He was riding along, acting like he was in the TdF and everyone else on
the road shouldn't have been there.
All the while, our hero, spinning along on his ss at a safe distance,
laughed at the poor sap and made peace with the other road users in his
wake..
