This is disgusting

Disgusting behavior......

But what also annoyed me was how many people commented on the cost of the bike. [... ] I don't slag off other peoples hobbies each to their own, but it seems cyclists have to put up with abuse

Other hobbyists do get stick for the amount of money that they spend.

If computers were owt like they'd have a predictive text function.

So, when cretins comment on cycling stories in the press, as soon as they type the words 'CAR TAX' the keyboard explodes and a comedy hammer pops out of the desk and smacks them in the nuts.....


Just sayin.....

get on dragons den, youll make a fortune

When I pass an angler at our local fishing lake/nature reserve, carpet bombing the fish with about 6 rods on rests, a big trolley and a hide (and why do they wear camouflage? is it to hide from the fish).... I might think what's the point (apologies to any anglers) but I don't consider how much has he spent on all his kit... its up to him (and his conscience as to whether he can afford)
