Eggs are harmless

Well the one that hit me cracked my helmet, so I would disagree with this.

Smeg didn't get the reg. Much as I've plod bashed on this forum, they're not telepathic, so there's very little they can do without a decent ID.

I thought he was asking if it was worth making a note of the reg for next time....hopefully there won't be but....etc etc.... :blush:

Honestly, I sympathise with your very unpleasant experience and don't condone it at all, but that bit is funny.

(I was going to say it cracks me up but that would open up a whole new line of posting),

Ive been egging a few times when i was a little younger, we had a rule of no women or children. Eggs are harmless and people overreact with the "someone could have been killed" crap, if you fall off your bike because you got hit by an egg you shouldnt be riding around the road anyway.

Im sure you all did stupid stuff when you were kids.


A CYCLIST was blinded in one eye by drive-by yobs hurling an egg.

Had a full can of Stella thrown at me from a passing Corsa-full of shaven hoodies last week but fortunately the can just missed my front wheel.

Sadly had been opened [otherwise I would have been £2 up] but contents splatted over me and my bike- smelt quite pleasant but family wouldn't believe I'd not been on a binge round the corner.
That was bloody inconsiderate, at least they could have thrown an unopened one at you so you could have had a beer when you got home. Likewise, if the dickhead that threw eggs at me could have flung some sausages, black pudding and some mushrooms I could have had a good fryup. If they could aim for my rear basket next time I wont have to stop and pick it up off the road and the eggs wont break ta.
 
Eggs have very strong structures from top to bottom, so if they land pointy end first, can cause a lot of damage.

The nights will be drawing in soon - egging season will be upon us; watch out !

February last had ice thrown at me by some youth from the passenger seat of his mothers car [I guess it was his mother driving], caught up with him and had a word - he did appologise - the mother didn't say a word.

No, I'm in Winchester, but pop over to the island often enough with friends and very occasionally on business not to feel a complete stranger. I'll usually come over for the IoW Randonnee as well.
I've considered giving the Randonnee a bash, trouble is it seems to coincide with my trips to Scotland, and I do enough cycling anyway commuting to work so I'm not sure if I can be bothered.
Bits of the island I like, bits of it you can stuff up your @rse and other bits have the appearance of already having spent some time up my @rse.;) I certainly wouldn't want to live there. IMHO, drivers' attitude to cyclists is less tolerant than on the mainland, which leads us to.....
What like Newport High Street on a Saturday? :blush: Cowes/self-gratification artist Week wants shoving up somebody's arse, not mine though :biggrin:
Ahh, the chain bridge. It sounds like the chap with the manky old cowboy hat hasn't been on a customer liaison course then?

Ah yes that - have you seen the state of the old rust bucket recently? It just seems to be a novelty for the tourists and a bloody annoying inconvenience for everyone else. The IOW is just one big holiday camp though, well in Summer anyway. I know the bloke you mean, bit like ZZ-Top only not cool - but it wasn't him I had a bit of a run in with, it was the twat in glasses with frizzy hair - has he ever thought about running a comb through it or getting it cut or something? He wanted me to move out of the way because I/my bike was taking up precious car space, even though there wasn't anywhere to move to because there were cars already on which were in front, to my side and behind me, but never mind little insignificant details like that cos' I'm just a bloody cyclist and cars pay. I very nearly told him to piss off, the only reason I didn't is because they'd probably ban me from using it and I wouldn't be able to cross anywhen then, although if it happens again he'll certainly get the wrath of my tongue. The only reason I didn't complain to the council was because it was just before I was going away to Scotland and by the time I got back it had been a bit too long ago really and decided to just let it drop. My mum has had similar experiences going across on her disabled buggy, how low can one go telling someone disabled to move out of the way so they can get more paying cars on? They're a load of peanuts.

I didn't think it possible, but you've just gone down in my estimations.

Even as a kid I had the sense to realise that chucking stuff at people was a twattish thing to do.

You either are a troll, or a complete and utter ****wit. Actually, there is a third option: I have a sneaking suspicion that you are both of the above.

The thing that makes me see bright red is that the c*nts who did that probably don't give a sh*t that he's lost the sight in one eye.

The thing that makes me see doubly bright red is that the c*nts in question would not be nearly so brazen were they to be confronted by a cyclist wielding a baseball bat and nowhere to run ...
