Now all you cyclists,tell me,is there a different law for you in Reading.When you jump the lights and just miss the cars that are coming across you do you think it's funny.When you ride in the middle of the inside lane up the A33cant you see the 15ft cycle path that cost a few grand if you cared to look to your left? Another thing,those flickering lights that you got on your head like Beachy Head lighthouse,do you know that they half blind motorists coming the other way.Reading seem to have the worse cyclists in the universe,perhaps it's time the government made them pay say 50quid a year road tax.I know motorist sometime p@@s you off and they can be just as annoying to you,but come on,obey the law.

Thats very magnanimous of you Mike. But I understand what you're saying. Bikes can cause some pretty bad scratches on a car ;)

To do damage to a car with your bike, you'd either:
A) Have to actually collide with the car, thus causing a lot more damage to the rider
B) Have to intentially scrape some part of your bike down the side of a stationary vehicle, in which case the issue isn't that your a Cyclist, It's that your an A***hole.

One of my friends rides with the cello on his back on his bike, OK you'll say, except that his cello is actually worth more than maybe 60% of cars on the roads (over 20 grand). We tell him he's mad, but he says nothing ever happens and with a strong white reflecting case he's actually more seen on the road, not less ...

I think that's a bit strong on cyclists Tilehurst. You shouldn't tar everyone with same brush ;)
