Lets post a video of someone doing something stupid. Could you also post a few videos of mobility scooterers or people with large eyebrows or people who have pet llamas doing something idiotic as well. I feel the need to bash some minorities.

TimmyR Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) no it hasnt ---------- Post added 10-07-2017 at 09:41 ---------- what are you on about? who mentioned lamas and mobility scooters:huh:? this happens more just the once i see it all the time and the driver gets the abuse when its the cyclist at fault 100% This is what you call humour. Sometimes it makes people laugh but not always, oh well. My point was that you've posted a link to a cyclist doing something stupid which has no relevance to this thread. Go and find a thread about llama owners and post a video of a llama owner doing something stupid and you'll see how daft a thing it is to do. No no don't start giving me the "I see this all the time stuff" I've heard that a lot of times by people. Gets a bit dull. How often do you see cyclists NOT doing anything wrong? I bet pretty often really. And how often do you see other road users doing something wrong? Pretty often I guess. you are likely to cherry pick the bad stuff that cyclists do to support your view that cyclists are all evil scum when really they are just people, some are idiots, most are law abiding and descent people.

I don't make stupid moves, don't think I'm entitled. I drive A LOT (and funnily enough can see other cyclists while I cycle) and I rarely see cyclists do stupid things. I do see it yes, there are idiots on bikes but its the idiots in cars I'm more concerned about. The point is this thread is about high vis and you just post an inflammatory video to show how stupid cyclists are. How about I suggest people like you (whatever that may be- I'm making no assumptions, you know insert whatever minority you like, haters of "political correctness" or something - maybe that is what your name is getting at, its not clear) have to walk around with a flashy light on your head to warn people that you might do something stupid. Would you like that? Edited July 10, 2017 by TimmyR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barleycorn Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Such nit picking! - a barrier = legal requirement at least roughly that seems to be the definition in this thread. None of the other things you or cyclone have mentioned are necessary. many are a good idea but to go cycling all you really need are: Bike Yourself and at night: Bike Yourself lights I do however think that some clothes at least is a good idea. No, no. Clothes are a legal requirement so are therefore a barrier to cycling and must not be enforced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
