Wiggins is now pro-compulsion it seems .... Nobber.

Whilst out yesterday every cyclist I saw had a helmet on.

 

[Drago]

And hopefully each one made a decision to do so without any undue pressure.

Nobber:

To wear or not to wear, that is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous driving, or to take arms agains a sea of nobbers, and by opposing end them?

I reckon he's wearing a syrup over a helmet.

And it looks like his left arm is flowing like lava from his sleeve. Is Brad even human?

Excuse my ignorance but who is that other bloke? Is he someone I should recognise?

 

[LCpl Boiled Egg]

@yello No idea, but the one on the right is that bloke from the Kaiser Chiefs who is on The Voice.

 

[yello]

Cheers. Kaiser Chiefs, I've heard of. The Voice I haven't.

Excuse my ignorance but who is that other bloke? Is he someone I should recognise?

Owner of the London Evening Standard Evgeny Lebedev.

 

[glenn forger]

I think the whole article was predicated on Lebedev having his photo taken with Bradley. They thought "He's a cyclist, what shall we use as a hook?"

And hopefully each one made a decision to do so without any undue pressure.

I hope that as well.

 

[Tin Pot]

I thought more stuff was the answer?

No, you're thinking of triathlon.

 

[Tin Pot]

Never mind all that, A DOUBLE-BREASTED LEATHER JACKET!??!?!??

Is the jacket the to distract from wiggins' wig?

 

[doog]

Of course he is allowed to have any opinion he likes but it comes at a price. He is a successful cyclist so, to the casual observer, he might be assumed to know about this subject and to be speaking with some authority. As he isn't, he is effectively abusing his celebrity status, the nobber.

Ill edit that spur of the moment comment :-)

While out yesterday I must have seen about 20 cyclists all types only1 as far as I could see was not wearing a helmet .
I never liked wearing a helmet but it has become second nature now

As for Sir Brad he is entitled to his opinion just as we all are.

Only about half of the group I took out on Sundays club run wore helmets ,,,,,

Only about half of the riders I see in London ditto. And it's the tourists, the students and the city workers in suits who tend not to.
