Roadies: the Daily Mail Reader of cycling

It only work when you're on a road bicycle.

On a hipster bicycle, not really.

@RPM - it's not serious.

If there weren't cyclists being killed on the roads all the time, it might even be funny.

Andy wasn't wearing this whilst watching TDF in the Rapah cafe last Friday.

@RPM - it's not serious.

I know, but it's not funny either!

So what's next from Skully's list of provocative thread titles:

"Coffee: a brown and bitter liquid that's a bit like speed for middle class people."

"Children: the small and stupid version of adults."

"Adults: the large and repressed version of children."

"Sex: a clichéd juxtaposition of genitals."

Come on, start a new thread, I'm bored.

All need Daily Mail "?" of prejudice

How come?

I have no idea

I'm getting Death to Roadies printed up in full kit wanker style. Overshoes, socks, knicks, jersey, fucking cap, the lot.

I have no idea

Might be delayed reaction to the Kool-Aid

I wonder what Lance 'survivor' Armstrong is up to these daysN.

Might be delayed reaction to the Kool-Aid

Soon

I know, but it's not funny either!

Correct, wishing death on people is never funny, no matter how many layers of 'irony' are liberally applied on top ...

Unless it's hipsters.

Or people waiting to die.

Death to all humans!

Where's Hippy?

Can you merge this thread with a turd, then encase it in lead, then dump it in the Neapolitan bay like the mafia do with all their unwanted misdeeds pls?

Definitely more cricketers in Kent today then roadies.

0/10 - would not read thread again.

(Hope OP gets a girl/boyfriend soon.)

dont think OP needs to worry bout that^^

5* thread, for those riding fixed in London pre 2000.

C'mon you boring cunts, stop being so fucking charitable.

Go home Skully, you are drunk. Again.

Yep.

The truth is Skully has been harbouring malevolent thoughts about cyclists of all hues for a long time. Whenever I was 'standing by' at 'creative' corner I used to dread seeing him approaching with that distinctive gait of his, half John Inman, half goosestepping Nazi.
I knew I was in for another ten, fifteen or even twenty minutes of unalloyed vitriol, spite and resentment. And then he'd stop talking about The St John's Ambulance service and start on cyclists.
One week it would be BMXers, the next mountain bikers. He once kept me there for a full hour while he let rip about people who rode tandems. His belief was that if they wanted to ride the same bicycle they should have their bodies sewn together (an idea later picked up for the film Human Centipede) and then be nailed, Christ like, to a unicycle.
So it's not surprising that he is now picking on 'roadies'. Eventually perhaps he will tire of cyclists and move on to another subject. For a while he would sometimes divert in to spittle-flecking invective about The Samaritans, towards whom he seemed to bear a long-held resentment, but then he would always return to 'bastard cyclists'. It's sad really.

Yeah!
