Blame / Claim strawman

I left this point unanswered. My apologies.

This is a public internet forum read by thousands of people. It is not beyond the realms of imagination that an idle hack from the Daily Mail might google towards his next anti-cycling story.

"Gay cycle trainers call for halt to damages for cyclists

Homosexual cycle trainers are calling for damages to be withheld from injured cyclists who fail to complete cycle training courses. Condemning the blame culture that exists among London-based cyclists who seek damages from motorists, a leading cycle-trainer, who lives with his gay partner in Islington (and who asked not to be named) called for an end to damages for untrained cyclists. " It does cyclists no favour to have lawyers advising them take someone to court in the event of an accident similar to that which saw the death of Princess Diana. Putting the onus on cyclists to seek training will make for fewer avoidable incidents, and reduce house prices." Cycling organisations, CTC and British Cycling were unavailable for comment."
