Totally coherent.


Obviously you have a different definition of the word to the OED.

By the way, why not complain that the buses weren't running? Or the
taxis (or that they are too expensive/slow)? Or the boats? Or that
the roads are clogged? Or that your feet don't go fast enough? Why


Err , because I was talking about the tube? Is this too complicated for you?


Well, of course it is! He's a cyclist. Cyclists have serious
comprehension problems, everyone knows that. I'm surprised you didn't
remember that, Boltar. You're normally the one voice of sanity and
common sense amongst this newsgroup.

A sign says "Public footpath," cyclists think it means "Cycle lane."
A sign says "No cycling," cyclists think it means "Cycle lane." A
sign says "Cycling prohibited," cyclists think it means "Cycle lane."
A sign says "Cyclists must dismout," cyclists think it means "Cycle
lane." et. etc.

A sign says "Cycle lane," and the cyclists will just ignore it because
there's no just fun cycling where they can't annoy us pedestrians.
