Reflections of the tube strike

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

You know during the Tour de France when you notice how hewn the cyclists' triceps and forearms look when they're pulling or pushing on the handlebars?

That's what mine look like. Cycling through London this morning due to the strike, I kept catching their reflection in passenger windows when I passed cars.

They are, without question, a pleasure to behold.

Drive...

damnit...
Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.

An observation on cyclists in the Wolverhampton area.....nowt to do with tubes as we aint go tany.....(impoverished midlands backwater and all)

TOO much lycra....why? grown men in dayglo lycra should be the reserve of the NWOBHM....(see kiss, saxon,stryper etc etc)

Road Tax? have cyclists ever heard of this? taking a cycling proficiency test at the age of 9 does NOT entitle an individual to FREE access to the roads that us dirvers pay a coupla hundred quid a year for...????

Traffic Lights??

Do they not apply to cyclists?

I know that if i approached a red light in me motor, and decided to mount the kerb, drive over the crossing in the oncoming traffic and then rejoin the correct traffic lane, I think i may be looking at a ban....

apparantly its okay if your you balls are encased in lycra!!!

where is the sense!

Phew, got that out,now where is the next post.......

:lol: I actually shouted at a cyclist the other day. Pulled up next to her, wound down the window, and yelled "Do red lights not count for you then?"

She just said "Nope!" flicked me the finger and rode off :lol: :notworthy:

I went through a red light today on a pedestrian crossing, beat a car from a standing start and beat the bus home.

There's no such thing as a nice hill! Except when you're going down it of course :lol: . There's a killer hill along the cliffs here, nearly vertical been trying to get up it recently.....and so far managed half way. There comes a time when you're standing on your pedals and you just can't go up any further and you start to go backwards. Back brake quick!!! :D 8)
