First bit has an element of truth .
Second bit i disagree with.
I welcome other people with other opinions.
However Mr Pauls only arguement seems to be based on attacking me personally.
Mr Paul has posted in this topic about me to date thus :
"I said that I didn't believe your claim that you only rlj at completely deserted junctions. Because that's not true."
"Please justify your daytime rljing. And that is, you running red lights whenever you think you'll get away without being hit or pulled up by the police. "
"So you admit that your behaviour is indefensible? "
"You don't rlj at 2am. You rlj whenever you think you can get away with it."
"What do you do? "
Make any arguements you want but please do not personalise it to me - that is where the last thread ran aground.
I would love to hear Mr Pauls arguement so long as it isnt based on attacking me personally.
If you want a Topic specifically for the purpose of attacking me then please create a new topic.
Thanks.
I to am always suprised when people quote things I have said and rubbish it,..... and when the tooth fairy comes , and when pigs fly past,

"Most people are offended by RLJ'ing cyclists"

Its probably worth pointing out that this is one huge myth.

The only people who routinely get offended are a minority of unreasonable drivers and a noisy minority of unreasonable cyclists who prefer to sit around breathing toxic pollution rather than continue their journeys in a safe an reasonable manner.

I would suggest that most people are mature enough to recognize that bicycles, being small and nimble, are perfectly able to cross light controlled junctions and filter into traffic without causing the slightest inconvenience to anyone.

Many drivers have no idea that cyclists can ride in primary or secondary position legally so I doubt the accuracy of that argument.

Its just based on my experience; most drivers I know think the ability to RLJ is just a perk (albeit it bit cheeky) of riding a bicycle. I don't know any who are offended by it.

Should we start a thread on - Things we all agree on?

Like ermm... cake is quite good, smearing poo on a baby is bad? That sort of thing?
