On a lighter note, I thought PH might appreciate this one.

In it's 12th hour.

Exciting down in Cornwall. Made a mess out of the traffic on the way home though.

Cyclist you say? Hmmmm.

I can think of a Derek and Clive song to play at maximum volume down there. “Laugh, we nearly shat”....

I need help with my PH prejudices on this one

Are we outraged at some bloke wearing a helmet who is therefore a "cyclist" or the fact that the Police have arrived with bottled water and snacks?

Cheers

Nice powerful water hose.... not knock him off.... soak him soon get cold and call it a day.
What a waste of resources.
I wonder how other countries would deal with this.
No doubt a full English will be passed up to him in due course.

At least the boys in blue had some wonga and didn't go on the scrounge at the nearest McDonald's.
Oh wait Trumpton are in attendance....will they have their chuck wagon there..... or do MDonalds need to lock up sharply.
Bloody cyclists..... A French one at that....
He probably received a bking off a motorist for taking up a complete lane.

After watching some of the dash cam footage from cyclists on YouTube, if I was more local I would probably take the opportunity to drive past pointing at my dashboard screaming “camwaaaah”.

Excellent.... no doubt his lycra clad mates will be joining him for moral support .... complete with n million cameras.
Then again how will they manage to climb up/ walk wearing those daft looking winkle picker type Persian curled up toes things they wear.
He must have thrown his.
Perhaps he's been subjected to some verbal abuse by a motorist and is trying to make a mission statement about how down trodden cyclists are.

Can’t they just lace some food with laxatives? He’ll get down pretty quickly when the call of nature is somewhat urgent.
Can't possibly do that..... may breach his human rights..... that would be terrible way to treat him.
