Hello Guy

What about cycle racing on the streets of London - is that safe?
Do you do it regularly?

I don't think judith is into condemning anything other than her
chosen hate group, any more than she is capable of realising that
riding a bicycle across town at 20mph instead of 18mph is not
actually likely to result in the end of civilisation as we know it.

It's quite funny - the silly bint doesn't seem to realise what a
mean low down racing demon of a machine a Brompton isn't.

Given that they have not bragged about racing on the streets of London
in this newsgroup - it would not be an appropriate place to comment on
it

Mr. Charles Kennedy (Krankieburgh): Would the Prime Minister
care to comment on a report in today's Guardian that he: "arrived
late for a meeting with Jacques Chirac, smelling of alcohol, and
with body language suggesting a total disregard for the rights
of ethnic minorities, lone parents and laboratory animals"?

Why thank you Guy.

It was in fact you that said that you had had the race with a
colleague across London.  If you were trying the race on an
inappropriate machine then this of cause confirms that you are indeed
a fuckwit.

However, irrespective of the speed that you were doing it does seem to
me to be an inappropriate activity on the public highway.

Curious ad photo there of a woman with a poorly fitted helmet and

I'm fairly sure she doesn't know what one is - when someone reported 
that they were braking so hard the back end started to fold she 
started on about whether it was structurally safe and wanted an MOT 
for bikes.

Why thanks for the opportunity to show your psycholist tendencies  -
yes it was Woodall - there was no indication of what he was riding  -
he didn't say it was a Brompton - so I asked the reasonable questions:

Is the cycle (is it a cycle?) structurally sound?  Did you knock it up
yourself?

Perhaps there should be the equivalent of MOTs for bikes and
competency tests for cyclists.

Now, now Guy - I just love the way you use capitals to give words
emphasis.  Is that a personal or a psycholist tendency?  How is the
health by the way - still one or  two problems?

(Any chance of posting the snide comments? - or can't you find them
yet?

I understand that you're an authority on posting when having No Fucking
