Daily Mail in cycling shocker!

Nah he's meant to be alright - saved a friend of a friend from a mugger and got her phone back, so seems like a fairly sound chap.

I thought this thread was about that guy from Coldplay. Having now established who James Martin is, he appears to be a an assclown of the highest order.

I hope he makes a cup of tea and realises only after he's poured the water over the tea bag (he's northern right?) that he's run out of milk so he pops to the corner shop only to come back and realise his tea is too strong and limescaley.

I've just done that :(

cross thread snap!

i hope he gets locked in a walk in fridge

He's a dickhead. Nothing to do with this article. I just hate his face.

Also he did that programme about doing the Mille Miglia where he spent about a million pounds and still crashed out like a twat.

That's great. Especially the bit about gaffa tape. I do like the Mirror. The voice of reason.

I hope he runs the tap and the water lands on a spoon, directing spray everywhere.

winner.

I hope the rain stops so I can go and get some beer and get drunk reading this thread all evening. I think there is a possible landing pad for a certain copter

Heh. Just saw that. was coming here to "repost!" myself.

He might claim to have been trying to be humourous in his article (a la Clarkson, albeit a substandard attempt) but he doesn't really come across as joking. How will readers know? Articles like this all go to reinforcing anti cycling driving behaviour and encourages the sort of incidents that the following blog post talks about...
http://greenbristolblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/another-day-another-victim.html

From the comments:

*"The pictured cyclist is a friend of mine, he was hit off his bike on prince street as mentioned above, where it would appear the driver was not used to sharing the road with cyclists, (as he was not from Bristol).

My friend tells me the Driver seemed to become agitated because he was cycling in front of him. They had a verbal exchange, where my friend in the heat of the moment spat in front of the drivers car, (an act he deeply regrets). After which the driver slowed in pace almost to a stop then my friend (the cyclist)who was in front of the car, said possibly the driver was trying to nudge him slighty, but instead excelerated over the back half of his bike, He rode over his right leg and draged him a few metres. As you can see from the photo's on this site.

Lucky the bike stuck under the cars bumper preventing him from possibly being killed. The driver then revearsed back over my friends leg again, this time freeing him but not the bike. which remained stuck under the car, until he retrieved it afterwards.

As you can imagine he was quite shook up by the incident but is very happy to be alive. He has a swallon leg, with friction burns from being dragged on his shoulder, left arm, and also has slight swelling and abrasion to his leg and knee, from where it was stuck between the bike and the bumper of the car.

He has been unable to return to work this week as he is obviouly aching, slightly shocked and sore.

His father is intending to deal with the incident, via the drivers insurance company. Though he himself is unsure what to think or do about the whole palava?

As a friend I would like to thank all of you for documenting what happened on his behalf, and he would also like to thank the kind and decent members of the public and emergency services that came to his aid."*

Did he admit that the events were a figment of his imagination?

He neither confirms nor denies the events. Perhaps he never even test drove the car either. Maybe he sat in bed all day and just made the whole story up.

i hope he is busting for a piss and heads into the train station toilet. finds the seat down and has to pull it up, but on doing so finds his fingers in a dry and slighly gammay piss that has collected on the underside of the toilet seat. on finding someone elses stale gammay piss on his the fingers of his pissing hand he has a decision to use the hand, or try with the other.
on trying with the other he realises his fingers aren't dexterous to get a good hold on his little cock and ends up pissing all down his white trousers.. then the flush breaks

I hope he forgets the names of his guests whilst broadcasting live on Saturday.

i know, i know. It was a small victory.

I hope James Martin is making hot sweet sensual love to Andrea Corr and just before the whole sweaty orgasmic finale he wakes up in his bed alone wearing freshly soiled "the incredible hulk" Y fronts.

Shit, only just read his original article, after reading his apology

I used to quite like him and his cooking but if I ever see him in one of his Treved up cars I'll have to gob on the windscreen now
