Magnatom's Double Puncture

[Origamist]

Helmetcam user and cycling campaigner "targeted" as drawing pins sprinkled on drive

A cyclist who uses video cameras to highlight instances of bad driving has had drawing pins sprinkled on his driveway in what he believes was a deliberate act, and one he describes as “pretty sinister”.

Dave Brennan, who posts videos to YouTube under the user name Magnatom and who co-founded Scotland’s annual Pedal on Parliament ride, discovered the drawing pins after he punctured when leaving home to ride to work on Wednesday morning.

I always admired Dave's ability to stay rational and reasonable long after I'd have begun throwing hands, but he did seem to attract a fair share of grief both on the bike and on 'tube. Carry on Screaming, Dave
