Can I be the first to mention THE THIRD POLICEMAN here? As a cyclist on roads notoriously pitted with craters, I suppose I must be nearly 70% by now...

Can I be the first to misquote Marx? - "Bikebonkers of the world unite! we have nothing to lose but our chains!" |

I note that the poor man's been given three years' probation (which is probably longer than the guarantee on the bike).
(But perhaps I'm just being picky there. Maybe that observation should be on the Pedaltry Thread.)
