There is alot to be said for dutch bikes. They are not overly expensive new unless you wish to have one. They have a rear wheel lock that is damn near impossible to remove with power. They keep you dry in the rain, carry your shopping, loved ones, dogs, cats, you can tow the kids around, put boxes of all sizes on them, trailers and to top if off? PROPER CYCLE LANES!!!
Most dutch cyclist weight the bike down with so much stuff it is impossible to take it as it will fall over the ones taken are plain and not distinguishable, (unlike mine..) or they are not locked well.
Maybe Cameron should take delivery of a plain oma bike and sod the rich symbol, a bike is a bike to get from A to B, all good cyclist have a hack bike and save the best for what it is meant for not going from A-B but proper cycling when it is not going to be left for hours on end.
I understand his feeling about cycling as I have enjoyed all my life.
Get practical.....and by the way...take a lesson from the dutch and lets get the UK up to speed with proper bike application and start to downsize car use...
~i thank you~
