Bad Name

[Smokin Joe]

Are there any other legal activities for which you'd recommend anal rape as a punishment? Just askin.

Yeah,

For people who sell frames that need to be covered in Gaffa Tape to prevent chunks of paint wearing off because they can't be bothered to fit cable guides on the head tube.

Given the shifting nature of the locations posted by Twobiker, I am starting (perhaps belatedly) to question the veracity of this tale.

I have not shifted the location, it is you who cannot follow simple directions, I have lived here for 20years and am damn sure where it happened, I did not say it happened on the Kingsbridge Hill I said go up the Kingsbridge Hill, towards Kingsbridge and under the trees at the top and then past the turnoff to Avonwick on your right,you seem to be somewhere at the traffic lights at Follaton road, your worse than my mother-in-law, how did you ever find Plympton ?.

First, you said:

Top of the Kingsbridge hill coming out of Totnes, through the trees just before the turn off for Blackemore levels, cyclist was opposite Camps farm, was riding towards Totnes

You did not mention the A381! Remind me never to ask you directions as you don't know the names or numbers of roads you claim to cycle 200 miles a week on.

As you've only lived in the South Hams for 20 years, you're an Emmet, I am afraid.

I don't understand this smiley, what is it?

The road to Kingsbridge from Totnes is the A381 if you lived here you should not need telling it, and I have lived in South Hams for 53years but only near Totnes for 20, I don't need to make up a claim about cycling 200 miles I just get on the bike and do it, 75/100 on my day off Monday and then 25/35 per day through the rest of the week, best ride Totnes/Princetown/Tavistock/Okehampton/A30 to Exeter/Longdown/teign valley/ Chudleigh/Newton Abbot/ Totnes. may see you on the road sometime, if your not lost.

I know the A381 goes from Totnes to Kingsbridge. So why mention Kingsbridge Hill (it only confuses the issue) as the incident did not take place there!

Please pass on my sympathies to your mother-in-law: I can see how she would struggle with your cryptic directions.

This is my fave thread at the moment

It is good to hear that this is your fave thread but you should remember the underlying serious nature of the thread and that is of course the redemption of the delinquent and misguided cyclists the dwell amongst us.

.... the redemption of the delinquent and misguided cyclists the dwell amongst us.

Good luck with that.

It is good to hear that this is your fave thread but you should remember the underlying serious nature of the thread and that is of course the redemption of the delinquent and misguided cyclists the dwell amongst us.

If you compare motorists to cyclists in terms of road safety, nuisance noise, air pollution, foreign oil dependency, carbon emissions, spilling diesel, blocking pavements, obstructive parking, traffic congestion, policing costs, etc., then you should realise cyclists are in rather less need of "redemption" than those motorists who somehow think themselves worthy to judge them.

 

[apollo179]

And this is from someone who believes in the concept of responsible RLJing.

The important word being responsible.
If anyone rljed "cycling one handed, on the drops,slowly, and dialing on mobile phone" i would judge that not responsible rljing.
In the same way, the bahaviour as described in the op, i would judge that not responsible.

 

[apollo179]

Strange that you would regard RLJing slowly as an indicator of irresponsiblity. Still the main point is that, as a result of your pick and chose attitude to road law, I don't think you have a moral position from which to judge here.

What makes you say i have a pick and choose attitude to road law.
Someone who makes such irresponsible accusations is quite clearly of not fit to judge anyone else.
