    Who rattled his [bottle] cage?

    Mildly funny, though.

    Glad I did not - got to car bombs and closed it as a crank story or a white-space filler. Guess he had a bad day yesterday.

    I think he's taking the mick, unless you all realise this and are being Uber-Ironic.

    He is, but with no wit.

    That was funny. He must of read some of the inane arguments about cycling on the other boards (not talking about R&R at all)and decided to take the mick out of them.

    I tried to lock the bike to the railings outside the Natural History Museum once, was told I couldn't for 'security reasons'. That's the sort of attitude he's trying to show up as conservative and nonsensical.

    I don't really like his style but It's a pretty good parody of corporate bicycle parking policy.

    Has no one else experienced officious "facilities managers" telling them to leave their bikes outside for spurious reasons?

    The security guards at Heuston Station seem to be wearing bullet-proof vests these days.
