Cancellara taking his own team mate out.

Taken out by his team mate I though?

Tattoos etc (before someone calls me out for being racist).

Object?

You know I don't do colour.

Olaf, Charlie, both of your posts contain publicly available opinion from the inquest. There's no point in us censoring them.

My comment was aimed at a different post which I deleted.

Just a reminder. We don't allow 3rd party conjecture in these threads.
That includes uncorroborated witness accounts.

Please leave the discussion of exactly how this incident happened to the relevant authorities.

I was emailed about this but hadn't yet been near a computer to post a thread about it. I'm sad to hear that the rider has passed away in the mean time.

My condolences to the rider's Family and Friends.

I've just deleted a few posts on this thread.

Please keep it respectful and take discussions of road and traffic safety elsewhere.

A reminder. This forum (Rider Down) is about paying respect to those cyclists that have died on the streets of London. This is not the place for speculation about cause nor debate on what might have changed history or could change the future.

Also, it is not the place for the haulage industry to sign up and troll. If another company wishes to do that, beware that I will reveal who you are, and you will have a PR nightmare on your hands.

I have deleted some comments from the thread that were inappropriate.
Thank you.

My sincere condolences to the riders Family and friends.

Got a copy of Savour (Marv's new video) on route.
Jambul needs to hurry up with WY peg torture.

Ed great work on this thread and with your own release.

I've just deleted a photo of the bike from this thread as requested by private message.
Please refrain from reposting it.

a cyclist may have just been involved in an RTA on St John's Road by Clapham Junction... He was being given mouth-to-mouth by an officer on the scene... An air ambulance was just arriving

That's your line in the sand.

It's best we let Velocio decide what action, if any, is required as none of us are going to change our options based on anything said in this thread.

Velocio has always said that the forum members set the tone of what's acceptable. I'm putting my line in the sand for his consideration.

Fighting any form if bigotry will likely be a losing battle as people will always like their own tribe more that someone else's.

Relating to your last post age still shouldn't come into it. Racism is racism irrespective of who's saying it. Same goes for sexism, homophobia et al.

Yes.
No.

"that's a bit gay", is hardly Uganda is it? You weren't a prick as a youth and got pulled up?

Reductio Ad Absurdum >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

If you're looking for an opportunity to demonstrate your liberal credentials, the "Vince is on Take Me Out" thread is tying itself in knots over gender stereotypes.
I have zero interest in reading the greater forum. I do read this thread as people leave messages pertaining to the forum I moderate.

I believe I've already addressed your "youth" statement.

but also in how the people you're talking about are very young, perhaps school age, certainly younger than the youngest LFGSS members six years ago.

That's hardly an excuse.

For the sake of being clear I reported a post of your which was obviously intended as a joke but I find mocking homophobia at the expense of a homophobic person to be just as distasteful as the original act.

It is also not my place to remind the offender of anything. I'll leave that for Velocio.

A truly repentant person would have edited this post

So I can be openly racist provided I pretend I'm dumb and apologise later?
This place is not what it used to be.

Sorry to be a pain but does apologising for homophobia make it okay and thus forgivable?

Seems like an easy get out for a whole load of bigotry.

Such a loser.

I want another road bike...

Hilarious.

Asshole

Fuck off Joe.

This thread is for reporting minor road traffic incidents.
