People on bikes....

I think we need to come up with a list of alternative put-downs for pavement cyclists:

(1) Only big jessies (TM) cycle on the pavement
(2) Pavements are for 5yr olds
(3) Where are your stabilisers ? (possibly combined with (2) above)
(4) Not man enough for the roads ?


Anyone care to add others ? It'd be fun if Magnatom could eventually post up videos of himself shouting each line at a different pavement cyclist....

I do hope the TM in number 1 relates to my trade mark!!

I'd almost be tempted to try this! I have some concerns though.
a) Depending on what I have to say I could be at risk of a boot up the baws!
It would encourage me to start specifically looking for them
c) Whilst looking for them I might not notice the car heading straight at me
d) To have the full effect I would have to surprise them Thus I would have to cycle without my lights on
e) by doing ( I would have to do (d) which would increase the risk of (c) and no matter what I do I would always be at risk of (a)


Maybe I'm just not man enough for the challenge

Anyway my additions would be:

5) Whatchooterapolis!
6) Get your cycling lights here, two fur a pouwaaaan.......

It was your trademark, so you're right there.

Maybe I'd add that other gem from Chewin' The Fat (slightly modified, of course):

"There are two types of cyclists, son. Those who can ride on the road, and those who can't. And you're just a big CAN'T !!"
