Christ I hate cyclists, absolute bunch of caantsGet off the fecking road and stop holding up people who have non Lycra clad lives to live
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Funny how so many people fume at being 'held up' by a cyclist yet, without question, spend more time being held up by other drivers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Other drivers pay their road tax, I fail to see what cyclists contribute to the roads apart from ruining people’s day! They have no accountability for their actions, whereas poor driving has legal consequences. The majority have no respect for other road users and seem to take enjoyment in holding up traffic.

Roll on winter when the Lycra brigade go back to the cars they pretended not to own
----------------------------------------------------------------------

100% this. Although I must say I have respect for those that keep getting on their bike and go out. People that talk up cycling but are too much of a pu55y to go out on a ride through fear of being involved in an incident are just the worst.

Trolling score - 4/10

Good structure and the story developed well, but overall it contained too much desperation. Nice try though, I’m sure you’ll improve.

Question for car drivers. See if you are walking down the street (waddling maybe to get your McDonalds) and I started spraying a can of pollution in your face would you be happy? Or if I came to your edge of town housing development and starting spraying a barrel of pollution about your garden, would you be happy?

Question for Declan. Ever used any of the following/
Car, taxi, bus, plane, train open fire, motorbike ?

If I was a car driver, I wouldn’t be walking down the street would I?

71 is all we need, come on we got this.

Why don't cyclists have to pay a cycle path tax?

It was mentioned earlier in this thread by, let's say, a defender of cyclists, that a reason many cyclists don't use designated cycle paths is due to them being in poor condition.

When that was first stated I argued back saying they should use them and if they don't its dangerous road use.

However upon reflection poor conditions is a fair reason not to use a cycle path, especially if it could put said cyclist in danger.

So what's the solution? I mean when roads are in poor condition road tax is used to fund repair, therefore would it not make sense for a cyclist to pay a cycle path tax and therefore have the necessary funds built up to repair and keep them in top condition thus making them more popular with cyclists who currently refuse to use them?

*70 not 71

Are you bored and trolling?

I assume you are, it's just so many people genuinely believe what you've said, it's quite hard to tell.

My word is this thread still going

Trying to get it to a thousand Vida

I will look forward to getting the 1000th comment

Well once you have parked it, stopped for breath, a cigarette and then waddle torwards the mcdonalds door? Or do they do those drive throo or whatever they incorrectly call it because they are fat and American?

How about if I just got a bottle and stuck it behind your exhaust, then emptied the contents of the bottle through your window?

It's like people who don't pick up dog shiiite or drop litter. Just post it through their letter box. Then burn their house down.

If cyclists are so bothered about pollution on the roads then stay of the roads

Not having some hipster with a handlebar moustache deny me my human right to pollute

Have you also seen the amount of cars parked in cycle lanes? Plus it’s up to a cyclist if they use them or not.

His is my favourite to show motorists a safe pass, pool noodle to show required space left between bike and car.

Pollute with your arsse not your mode of transport. Also not denying you, just giving the pollution back to you as you dropped it and probably miss it?

I demand a pavement tax, immediately.

All these pedestrians who moan about having somewhere to walk but aren't willing to pay for it.

And parks.

The amount of people with children I see not using parks when they have been built for them and PAID FOR BY THE TAX PAYER.

Disgusting.

Well if there was proper funding in place via a cycle path tax then there would be capital to pay for the cars parking illegally like this to be towed away.

That cyclists are saving the earth. Road tax payments by motorists should be paid directly into the bank accounts of cyclists, thus making the world fair.
