Durex cycle helmet.jpgCyclist - complete with helmet - spotted having sex in roadside bushes in London
A student has described how she saw a cyclist – complete with helmet – having sex in some bushes on a common in southwest London.
University of Roehampton English Literature and Philosophy student Sian Carpenter was travelling along Putney Commondale on Monday afternoon when she spotted the amorous couple.
> Team Sky reported to have tested whether Viagra helps riders' endurance
The 21-year-old told The Sun: “I was on a bus going past Commondale and I saw a cyclist only slightly behind the trees, in the full get up – even his helmet.
“So obviously I’m thinking ‘what’s he doing there’ so I glanced over and that’s when I saw the other person in front of him and the penny dropped.
“It was so funny. I doubted if that was what actually was happening though, then another person on the bus reacted and turned round really shocked so then I knew I was right.
She added: “What was weird to me was that the other person was just dressed normally in a coat – I don’t know how it would have happened.”
We don’t know either – but it has got us wondering whether Team Sky are still testing out the performance-enhancing benefits of Viagra and, if so, which of its riders might have been training in the area yesterday?

Vaginal Gains........... I'll get my coat.
Dogging Cycle Club - wonder what the Jersey design is...
They must be stopped or they will breed.....
Quick blast of the Cannondale on Commondale.
Sounds like a simple case of assuming that it was a pump track.
Where's the GoPro footage?
Do you think they'll put it on Strava?
Was it the bicycle position from the kama sutra?

There's a lay-by near mine where men have sex with one another not bothering to even use nearby bushes.
It's not called a lay-by for nothing.
Precisely.
One of them brings a mattress.
Note to self.
DO NOT accept 'first aid' from SuperPython.
What makes the person a "cyclist"? Were they not just a person having sex in the bush? What does it matter whether he had a bike nearby, or had walked there, driven, flown...?
I'm curious to know whether he carries a condom in his jersey pocket or saddlebag on every ride. A bit awkward if that falls out your pocket when you're getting your money out at the cafe stop...
Alternative trailquest anyone,
Fake news, move along.
When I saw the headline I wondered if someone had been inspired to film that story dottigirl posted last year...
Imagine, a normal person having sex with a cyclist!
"...I don’t know how it would have happened.”
I guess studying "how sex happens" wasn't on her syllabus.
I saw stuff when I was 21, didn't tell the papers about it, didn't rise to national prominence on account of my amazing ability to see - an opportunity missed
When a daddy cyclist and a mummy non-cyclist love each other very much...
I suspect from the location that it was in fact two daddies...
maybe even an audi owner and a cyclist unable to bear the frisson between their respective modes of transport
dressing up as a cyclist and waiting in the bushes for some pollen to land on you is the new dogging!
She's a hooker and the cyclist used the 'going out for a ride' entrendre as a cover, hence the full kit.
I do it all the time.
Definitely not a full kit w**ker in this case then?
Good that he had full protection #helmet
Well there you go, the tin foil hat wearing flat earth society anti helmet brigade have been proved right on this occasion; wearing a helmet does indeed make you take unnecessary risks.
the full get up – even his helmet.
Obviously ensuring safe sex.
Bring in the close pass initiative, NOW.
The only story here is the stupid things that people say
