Brakes are like soooo uncool dude.
Somebody needs to have a word with their parents, what are they thinking, no brakes and riding like complete lunatics. Back in my day we wouldn't dream of behaving like that, I even spotted one of those young men using his foot on his rear tyre in a vain attempt at trying to slow his bike down, aren't they worried that they may scuff their shoes, I guess others may have noticed that neither of them gave the correct hand signals. Riding like that will give us more 'conservative' cyclists a bad name.
I am now writing a very angry letter to the BBC and the Guardian.
