    Ok so this is kind of in jest and a poke at Road CC for including some very tenuous links to ‘cyclists’ in their articles, this is pretty horrible stuff, arrested for hanging out and literally doing nothing to justify what happened.

    These noddy hat wearing wankers are no cycling bretheren I want to ever be associated with, they give all cyclists a bad name …

    I wonder if anybody noticed that you were being “ironic”? I cannot detect any hint.

    The Soviets had a great deal to do with winning the “Great Patriotic War”,  and there are different opinions on the American effect on our language. You might also find other countries don’t think the USA made them more peaceful. The Vietnamese still suffering from Agent Orange chemical warfare,  or the Iranians living in Falluja burnt by the evil white phosphorus ( more WMD) did not feel very safe. Credit where it is due. In many of those years many people were living in dread of Mutual Assured Destruction.

    Let’s not forget that the U.S. is the only country to use nuclear bombs on civilians.

    Uhr… none of that is exactly true… But that’s an entirely different topic of discussion.

    Uhr. None of it is at all true (even though they’ll claim them). That was my point.

    Perhaps if you had aksd for some ‘badderies.’

    After a minute or two of describing removable electric power in little cylinders, he eventually realised “oh, badderies!” and showed us where they were. Two nations torn asunder by a common language.
