feargal   21 #506 Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) Nah, that’s Popple Street  as I was driving up Owler Lane on Thursday evening, there were 3 guys kicking and stomping on an OFO bike. These weren't kids, they were easily mid to late 20s. What type of pillockry is that? The man in the car in front of me got out of his car and shouted at them, and they sloped off looking sheepish.  What is wrong with people? There's always at least 2 ofos buckled wheels or smashed seats round that area. Edited May 13, 2018 by feargal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
catmiss   12 #507 Posted May 16, 2018 Wonderful a load more bikes ridden and dumped by the irresponsible. Fed up dodging the yellow peril riders on the pavements. Perhaps the money invested in this would be better spent providing cycle lanes for the responsible riders to ride safely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
AlexAtkin   10 #508 Posted May 17, 2018 Where would you put the cycle lanes? The narrow ones on main roads are completely unsafe to ride in. Then others go right through parked cars.  Then when its legally a shared pavement, pedestrians are completely oblivious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Considering pensioners get free bus pass in this country young people should get free bicycles as well.  I'd be tempted to either let it's tires down, or splash out on my own personal lock to add to it.

Bit of superglue in the lock of the one they've fitted should suffice, cheaper and you get to use it on any others you come across.
