police cycle men

They look like some kind of Dalek hybrid!

They were comical but I didn't laugh.

Came across some police cyclists the other night. They were dressed head to toe in black, and with weedy rear LED lights... still, good to see them out and about.

The cops ride Smith and Wessons? I thought they only made ammo.
Our cops on bikes ride Specialized something-or-other.

That is sooooo funny richp. Segways etc are legal in quite a few other countries, so that makes sense.

Is that what they're called? My wife says they were designed originally for the disabled.

I reckon you end up disabled if when you fall off one!

The cycle cops round my way wear helmets and dress in 'pigged-up' cycling clothing. I've not seen them for a while, maybe they were run over.

Dayvo I think it has an attitude indicator in it somewhere!!!!

Police here couldn't use Segways because it's illegal to use them on the road, and it's illegal to use them on the pavement!

One should be put into the 'Politics and Life' section!

Yes, it's a shame. I think a segway would have interested my dad one day rather than a hell's granny, which he dislikes a lot.
