How do you get a bicycle to go forwards at 20mph when you spend all your
time back-pedalling?

pk suggested attacking a cyclist breaking the law, I pointed out that if
he tried that with me it's not going to good for him.
Yes... errm you've never got the hang of this "logic" thing have you?
You jumped to the conclusion that I do jump lights at busy crossings
No, you admitted that you jump lights at crossings, and you've done it
again up there. (points).
Yes, but in my twisted brain I've differentiated between jumping a
busy red light (no no) and a quiet one (go go). Doesn't make me right,
just gets me to a point where I don't care what you think.
You see "pk" referred to shouldering any cyclist who cycles across a
crossing while he had the green man. That is, when the cyclist would
encounter a red light. If you and he were on the crossing in the
circumstances mentioned then you would have jumped the lights at
crossings.
If I were to jump a busy red light and someone did attempt to
shoulder me to the ground under what 'right' would they have to do so?
Last time you saw a car jump a red light did you attempt to get their
number plate?
blah blah blah..................
.........more blah
and I'm pointing out you're wrong.
You and that logic thing again, strangers forever.
Why is it ok to attack someone breaking a law that doesn't involve
your own person?
Who said any such thing? Some **** cycling at me on a crossing does
affect my person, as does the same type of brainless **** using the
pavement as an express cycleway.
Pk did, he said he'd shoulder charge the next red light jumping
cyclist who came close to him. But a cyclist jumping a red light is
not aiming for you, but the gap between and the next person. It may
**** you off, if may scare you, poor baby, and as stupid as the act
may be, it is not directed towards you as a person. It's not all about
you y'know.
And don't try to come the innocent on this, you've alread shown your
real attitude. And quelle surprise it's the standard "**** on
pedestrians" crap I've come to expect from two-wheeled scum.
I thought '**** on pedestrians' was a driving mantra. Innocent. Me?

I'm headin' to hell to drive a Vauxhall Viva for eternity.
What my real attitude then?
