Whinging Brits

[MichaelB]

On cyclingforums.com there is a link to the Bike Cafe. It has a link to three Google groups on it along with its own forum. When you log onto cycling forums you see the last post in any of the four forums - cycling forums one, the Aussie one, the predominantly American one and the UK one.

You know when the last post it is showing has originated from the UK forum because it is basically a whinge implying the world has gone mad. I think its a reflection of our country's arrogant, seedy, obsessive media which is always very negative and makes out that everything is scandalous.

Anyway. This cycling is giving me RSI in my middle finger because of all these bloody motorists. And those SUVs, dont get me started. Kids? Well they need to bring back coporal punishment to teach the little louts a lesson? Anyone care to march against that war monger Tony Blair? Get the troops out. Its scandalous. Its all lies. Country's going to the dogs with all these illegal immigrants that are flooding the streets.

google groups never saw **** posted via cyclingforums and google groups!
Long live Usenet!

No, it doesn't have any links to any Google groups. Do keep up at the
back. Or if you're too thick to understand the technology, leave it
alone.

That's a very negative view. Stop whingeing.

But indicative of the general level of Clue we have come to expect from
the denizens of cyclingforums.com. They probably think digital watches
are a pretty neat idea too.

A digital watch, you know, one with fingers on it instead of hands.
