cheers hael, but i'm being serious... sorry if i'm being a bit dry and not jumping on and calling martin a cunt.
but there are too many examples over the last year of how mainstream media influences the general perception and relationship between cyclists and the motorist.. I see this as an opportunity to respond in a decent and democratic way, and in doing so leverage a bit of public opinion to our own advantage..
its a throw away remark to call him a cunt and even more childish to threaten him and his property etc.. surely much more clever to use the opportunity to raise the overall problem of how such high profile public figures and the media they are representing are able to condone this position.
This is finally the opportunity to present ourselves in a proper manner and begin the re-education of the british public towards respecting cyclists..
