    The article was a mindless tirade to express his disgust as staring at lycra clad men and women, the
    annoying clickety-clack of cleats on cafe floors, how the author felt like a less than equal citizen
    by not being able to drive on a road without encountering other legal road users, promoting honking
    at cyclists, and finally voicing concern over the thousands of sheep-mentality cyclists descending
    on the city on Sunday. The only vaguely sane point was the concern expressed over riding more than
    two abreast.

    He pretended to make the whole thing reasonable by saying he owned a bicycle.

    Mr Terry Plane (author) and senior writer at The Australian should be given as much credit
    as its due.

    One big lycra clad brown eye to Mr Plane!

    Overall on par with most of the remaining content in 'The City Messenger' 🙂
