Alex 4.0 commented on ChrisS's blog post Yet more tiresome crap"So Jill picked up that two-bit VECCI online poll attention-seeking, anti-cyclist beat-up.

Alex 4.0 replied to GeeBee's discussion Ute driver dies after hitting cyclist!"This is a public forum, and the last thing we need is to feed the perception that cyclists a) would take satisfaction from a motorist's death, and/or b) are of the opinion that motorists deserve to die if they hit a cyclist. All it takes is a…"

- Now tell us about your bicycles ...
- Am currently riding a recovered hard-rubbish 90s Kuwahara. Had it blasted and coated, rims too, for something different. It's now rather shiny. Bill at Human Powered very patiently endured my three separate trips to work out which spokes I needed, and I built up a fun 3x chook foot that's running almost true. Well, if you squint. Have a 2008 Schwinn Madison that needs some lovin'.

Hell, he backpedalled so much, he should have been a fixie rider :)
