Am I a bad man?

[Racing roadkill]

Yes, a very naughty boy. Now write this 100 times:

I must remember how to spell ''kerb''.

Autocorrect, I couldn't be arsed to change it.

I used a kerb to curb my speed once - it was not a pretty site so I fitted some breaks

Is this a joke I haven't picked up on, spelling brakes "breaks" happens with alarming regularity on this forum, have I mist something.

Can you be more pacific?

Autocorrupt.

I'm on a jolly to Bournemouth today. As I was riding through Boscombe, a guy on a fixie, went straight past me at a red light, then hit the curb, then span across the road on his arse. I didn't stop to help, does that make me a bad man? If it helps, I did offer assistance to a chap with a puncture, earlier on.

Riding through Boscombe you say ?........

best just to carry on mate

It's a cycling forum: who REALLY cares if someone's spelling, grammar, punctuation etc. isn't up to your standard.

Are you belittled by people on 'correct English' forums because you're a crap cyclist?

What more do you need?

It's a Tardis, or maybe a 'Tardis.

If we were all perfect, we would have nothing to talk about. Helping the guy with a puncture makes you a good man. Ignoring idiots doesn't make you bad.

it is threads like these that indicate many cyclists are a little too pompous imo.

I don't care how people spell. I thought it was a joke that had passed me by, I don't think they would accept me on a correct English forum because mines as crap as my cycling.

That's about it, it's a giggle, autocorrect sucks

 

[Herbie]

Only if you cycled passed him pissing yourself laughing would you have been bad.

You didn't, did you?

I would have been very tempted.

 

[Herbie]

Maybe he couldn't stop cos he's not used to fixies, so hit the curb in a vain attempt to stop. Yes you are bad.

I'm not buying that

Curb is what Americans call the kerb? Isn't it?
