Was the uncle on your mothers side? How did he feel about her calling her horse nigger?[/QUOTE]
Mothers side yes. Wasnt her horse was the riding schools horse. He doesnt care hes racist to everyone. Some of the stuff he comes out with is bad but funny.
Too all who want to read racist, agest, sexist jokes sikipedia has many.

It is quite odd how you both were so casual about it.
Ok fine.
Anyone can call me a racist. Just to let you know that my uncle is black. Past boyfriends have been black, asian, white all the colours of the rainbow. I did go out once with a guy who was orange he had way to much fake tan for anyone to wear.

Fucking bread thieves. They used to hang people for that.
OK so for clarification then.
You may not have been 'trying' to be racist, but you were. And so was Yeesh.
I care about the casual racism, but not that it may not be deliberate... It's still racism.
If your mum had a horse called Nigger it's because she was racist (regardless of whether it was 40 years ago or not). I had a 'Gollywog' doll when I was a kid. I can't avoid the fact that it was racist because it was. In hindsight it was wrong that they made them and I'm surprised that my parents went along with it. The fact that it was 'ok' at the time doesn't make it any less racist.
FYI Yeesh's comment was a joke. A racist one. Like the ones Davidson or Manning tell. And it's shit.I hope that clears up any confusion for you
Yes clears it up thankyou.

Actually chaps I don't care what level of sarcasm you're employing. I have a genuine problem with Yeesh's little Leeroy joke. It's shit and racist. And Greenracer's bizarre assumption that it constitutes a genuine story about black paint is a massive fail. Oh and I really couldn't care less that your Mum used to have a racist name for her horse and that this makes you feel ok about casual racism.
Im not trying to be racist, just pointing out how times have changed from 40 years ago to now. If you dont care dont comment or read it. I care so that why im replying to you. And yes maby i miss read things, dont get the jokes but im only human and make mistakes.

He was being facetious.
You'd have to be a real twat to take your description of a black man as black as a racism.
It's ridiculous this level of political correctness.
Did you know you can't say "black paint" any more?
Do you know what you have to say instead?
Leeroy, please paint the wall.
Its stupid how pc things are now. F"ck that im going to say black paint.
How things change, my mum used to ride a horse as a child called nigger. So going from that to not being able to say black paint. :(.I do agree with you.

I've only been on 2 CMs, but I have to say that riding fixed is defo the best way to go, cos' let's face it, if there's one thing fixed is brilliant at, it's riding real slow.
Also, don't go with an attitude, it don't help anyone
Also, do go with a couple or 4 beers though
Also, pick a CM when it isn't rainingI thought it was illegal to ride and drink?
From what people have said and looking at some vids of cm i think going without an attitude is the best advise. -
I dont think he was trying to be racist. Just decribing the thief.
Im so glad no one was hurt and you didnt get anything nicked.
Did you call the police?I had this 10years ago bloody thieves took out the double glazing windows in the kitchen, stole a loaf of stuff while my parents were asleep up stairs and me and my sister we luckly at a friends. We were 12 at the time.

Booga repped.
OP - some people are pricks. i don't think most of these people hate women cyclists more than men. but a lot of these people are also cowards and feel safer having a go at a woman.
I'm with Oliver on this.
Ladies, take your periods and your long hair and your bras and your wombs to Ladies Corner and stop embarrassing us!
Lights pipe, fumbles with manservant
Thats a bit nobby to say!

This is mainly for us girlies.
Do you get harressed whilst cycling?
Ive had times where ive been out on a ride and ive had men and a woman once say get off the road! Women cant drive let alone ride.
Also ive been minding my own business and had a bloke in a car comming the opposite way slow right down on a busy main road just to gawp at me, he actually managed to block traffic and some other bloke had to skidd to a halt.
Tell your stories, and have a rant!
