    Yeh just get rid of them.

    But you can't complain when you have rode into one saying it was camouflaged, if he can't identify those white bollards with that bit of snow, and I can see them all in the picture, then he should not be out in the road, as there is more dangerous things out on the road that could be potentially harder to see than that! I bet he's one of those cyclists you see on the road wobbling about all over the place.

    If he can't be bothered to look where he's going, he deserves everything he gets !
    Note the second picture, they dont seem particularly camoflaged in that one.
    If there was snow on the ground as in the picture, then what was the idiot doing riding in the snow when there is a perfectly clear path.

    Anyway, would I be right in thinking that if he was in a position where the bollard was camoflaged, then he'd have to be cycling down the white line, which also indicates that he was about to, or had been cycling on the footpath.

    No sympathy, no story, the guy has hurt himslef and has found something else to needlessly moan about. Pinkeyeleftydogooder with nothing better to do !!

    I make you about right,

    Maybe he should have gone to Specsaver's?

    "I've cycled the route for 25 years...."

    With his eyes closed I assume?

    I have no sympathy with anyone who cycles into a stationary object. Doubly so when they knew the object was there before hand.

  • I'll bet what actually happened was that he was attacked by one of those Polar Bears. Sneaky blighters who hide behind white bollards and jump out at the last moment. Either that or one of those b@stard Artic Hares. Lucky they didn't nick his bike!
