I think this says it all,

Anyone who listened to the 5 live phone in today (go and listen on i player) apparently speaking for us cyclists, he decided give the usual pathetic excuses for useless shite behaviour. Full credit to all motorists who phoned in and said the majority of the cycle commuters on the road can't navigate the roads out there correctly were absolutely right!

Anyone know who our new found spokesman was?

    I heard this. Had to turn it off, or my radio would have ended up under my heel.

    He was an ignorant, inflamatory fool chosen not entirely at random by the 5-live production staff to make for good radio. It will have made lots of motorists feel warm and fairly justified at the thought of swinging a couple of tons of metal in the very near vicinity of the next pavement cyclist they see on the road (sic). Another service provided by your license fee.
  • I've had a listen to it on iPlayer. Reminds me why I don't listen to radio phone-ins. :?

    Yes, the guy "defending" cycling was a c0ck. But the whiny woman from Devon irritated me more.

    And the lorry driver moaning about RLJers but then defending speeding in his lorry? :evil:
    Never be tempted to race against a Barclays Cycle Hire bike. If you do, there are only two outcomes. Of these, by far the better is that you now have the scalp of a Boris Bike.

    OOOOHHHH - just listened to this. Judging by his accent, this guy is definitely not a native Cardiffian :shock: !

    That'll be all from me on this.

    I think the cardiff bit was a lie, trying to protect his identity in case I find him...
