  • glancing at a lady while going about your business != openly creeping on total strangers in the street

    HTH

  • It's political correctness gone mad I tell you

  • You London lot are severe danger of disappearing up your own arses. Thankfully here in the sticks no-one minds if you look at ladies. Mental.

    Tell you what. You stick to the sticks.

  • Shall be tempted to gouge out my eyeballs pre summer so as not to be thought of as a pathetic when there are ladies around wearing summer clothes.

    ..On the same subject, decided against calling out the guy who came to almost a complete abrupt stop this morning on southwark street when filtering down the inside lane and confronted with a puddle approx two bike lengths long.

    Poor chap opted to switch to filtering down the middle of the road presumably to prevent his black and white wapa leggings getting wet and dirty.. awww

  • Looking is the new catcalling/whistling seemingly...

    I will, don't worry. FYI I checked and its ok in Bristol to look at women when you cycle past too. Phew.

    And you must never, ever go up to a lady and try to speak to them either, for fear of causing offence.

  • ^That actually sounds like quite a sound approach to me.

  • Is it time to start calling out bad feminists?

  • Having a look at the website, the cap seems the same. Tell him he's a dick for me.

    Was having a chat with him, he says:

    Just for the record: there's no worry of over steer on a bend that shallow, but if you do choose to hang around in the middle of the road then it's not fair to take it out on others keeping up with the traffic. I was simply following the lorry in the middle of the lane. I had no intention of cutting inbetween him and the lorry or overtaking it.

    He was also a Marine so might be more familiar with those vehicles than your everyday commuter. (Not to say you're not familiar as well, but if you assume he isn't you may be wrong in that respect)

    On another note, knowing he did BCM 600km on 90 GI, I wouldn't want to be the one to tell him to gear down :p

  • Fight or GTFO >>>

  • Is this him?

  • ^ He says

    And tell that bazschmaz fella to take down my pic or really find out what my roundhouse feels like

  • When I look at girls it's through binoculars and from a tree, you know, to avoid causing offence.

  • Do you wear an a owl mask at the same time? I have it on good authority that women love a owls.

    Seems interesting that he magically appeared in front of me. Maybe I blinked for 10 seconds.

    Having been around vehicles that transport large parts of aircraft across Europe, I've got plenty of experience in haulage vehicles.

    I don't want to make you into some middleman but if he wants to continue the discussion he knows where to find me. I don't for a second buy his story, he was nowhere near the middle of the lane he was well over by the central white lines, right in fucking front of me.

  • I do wear a mask, well a whole suit really. I wouldn't describe it as a owl like though.

  • ^^I'm willing to pass on a note at playtime if anyone needs any help.

    fucking otters and his logorrhea getting in the way.

    Fight Fight Fight!

    Yr male gaze is as obvious as your self-justifying misrepresentation of the point. The original text was 'rubber necking/checking out', not looking.

    I would encourage all cyclists to look at women on the street as all pedestrians, regardless of gender, are fucking useless

    It is jolly nice of you to so vigorously defend the poster's point, but you're now just spouting semantics, and I do apologise for my male gaze, I will try to avert it as best I can in future.

    I maintain if you are citing male cyclists looking or rubber necking or gawping at women as an example of being a bad cyclist then this thread has jumped the shark. It is much closer to someone using it as a platform for their petty annoyances rather than someone cycling in a poor manner.

  • I'd probably rubber neck at someone jumping a shark.
