Bike Rage!!!

[magnatom]

I am so, so angry! Fuming! Over-run with rage!

I just can't believe it. It has never happened to me before. Outrageous!!







The bike cage/shed thingy was.....was......was, would you believe it, completely full of.....BIKES!!

No space for my little ikkle bike at all!! I'm really not happy about this. I'm going to write to my managers, my MP, the BBC (I pay my TV licence after all! ), the queen, our Scottish First Minister, our Scottish Prime Minister, everyone Scottish, the UN secretary general, Varg from the planet Arg, Boris Johnson, Peter Mandelson and my mum.

Have I missed anyone out?


Did I say it was outrageous?

Actually it is the first time this has ever happened to me, and I wasn't any later this morning than normal. Fair weather cyclists for sure, but at least it is a sign that cycling is increasing. Every silver lining has a cloud I suppose...

We need video evidence!!

A photo will have to do as I am entering the upset phase now. Just looking at it makes me want to weep...


After I pass through this phase, I fully expect to enter this phase!

Oh don't be such a nancy, there is plenty of room in there for your wee push-bike.

It isn't that rare for cycle locking space to be in such short supply here that you have to find a place to lift your bike off the ground and chain it to the top of a railing.

Actually, as well as the shed being full (it is very difficult to get in and out of at the best of times, but full!), I am slightly concerned about the strange angle that the bike shed appears to be at. In fact the building looks as if it is leaning as well. Probably best to park my bike elsewhere today anyway...

Looks like that cage is tethered to the wall with a D-lock!

But this is Glasgow. Nobody in their right mind cycles in Glasgow!

Funny you should say that.... The cage is fixed to the ground but the bike stand itself isn't.... I think it might be time to ask for bigger and more secure bike sheds.....

I was in Cambridge at the w/e. Nearly got a hat-trick of cyclist hits when I was driving. They were on the wrong side of the road!

New student time. Fun, eh?

Proof positive that super Magnatom is making the cycling citizens of Glasgow safer

Now all you need to do is get that smiley wearing a helmet camera.
