Mrs WPT got back from her acupuncture, getting the car washed, walking the dog, putting away the washing, preparing the evening meal & morning shopping she had a go at bicyclists.
I nearly fell of the sofa.
While driving down a road near our place that is busy at peak hours & satuday mornings - the latter because a couple of good cafes & overly expensive deli's, two cyclists in their full clobber were riding next to each other holding up the traffic as there were cars parked on both sides of the road & the lane really only allows one cyclist - they were meandering like a lot of the old folk do here driving. In exasperation she tooted the horn to be greeted by a middle finger, when passing she advidsed them they ought to be riding single lane in that space. She was called a moll - which amongst other things reflected their ages. She was far from Robinson Crusoe she advises me.
Not a happy camper.
However Mrs WPT knows quite a few cyclists apart from yours truly & knows not to generalize form the actions of a few. Most of the time our stories about traffic involve car drivers!!

I guess that if the cyclist involved says no more on the issue then dare I say that his scilence may have been bought.Black_White wrote:3 days and still no proof from the anti Warne society.
Come on cyclists, by your own admission there were photos and video's galore.
Where's the proof apart from a pic of a bent wheel that I could have taken after I had put it in a vice!
I strongly suggest that that cyclist invests in a GoPro Hero 2 or a Contour , for when the next "Warne" comes along he will have the proof.

Disappointed c4e that you were the first to use this excuse.Collingwood 4 eternity wrote: I guess that if the cyclist involved says no more on the issue then dare I say that his scilence may have been bought.
Had no doubt that this excuse would have been bought up. But of course it does miss the point that the cyclist involved has stated that there were numerous photo's/video's taken of the event.
Are you seriously suggesting that all these people have been "bought off" by Warne? Every one? Would he bother?
No, that is plain silly. There appears to be no photographic evidence at this point in time. It may come, but this isn't the 2oth century when we had to wait for the film to be developed. In the 21st century proof is immediate and available via Facebook or Twitter in nano seconds.
I smell a set up. Maybe a set up for big bucks, but a set up all the same.

Because I'm insisting on proof? Not just the word of the lycra clad?
It appears you are happy with trial by press, no make that trial by internet blog!
Me, I'll take proof.
Care to show me some?

For someone screaming for proof you seem awfully quick to dismiss anything anti-Warne and defend Warne re this incident. What proof has Warne provided that makes his story so much more believable than the cyclist concerned or the witness that came forward?Black_White wrote:Why is that?Nick - Pie Man wrote:The world breathes a sign of relief as it is revealed that Black_White is not a member of Australia's judicial system

If Warne has provided some proof of his side of events then, to quote you, care to show me some?
