CYCLIST WEARS HELMET INDOORS AT CAPRICE
08 Dec 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Grant M, sent this pic in. Taken at Caprice on Saturday, citing the incident as “very emboerrissing.” Very toilet behaviour It’s not just emboerrissing, Grant, it’s downright rude. It is anti-social, ignorant behaviour by a handful of people who, as children, were never taught any manners. I would have got the wooden spoon [...]

CAN WE AT LEAST REMOVE OUR HELMETS?
10 Nov 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Like taxis, we have come to tolerate our lycra-engulfed brethren and now realise that the only defense is to simply divert young childrens’ attention away from the bizarre behaviour and stray balls on display. Sunday morning gave us some extreme examples of how the Shimano Warriors’ anti-social behaviour has gone WAY past the edge of [...]

IS THIS YOUR FATHER?

I know a lot has been said on these pages in the past, and I understand that some of you might think I’m waging a secret little war against the Shimano-ladened breathren. But I’m not. I’m just teasing. I’m just being observant and asking questions. Like right here, right now. I promise I’m not “having [...]
