Well said Hannah, bang on. It's the "if you're not with us, you're against us" type obsession that you see in all walks of life that gets me. "All drivers are murderers in waiting" etc. "He/she's a cyclist, so they can't be a dick". "E-bikes are evil, and not proper cycling"

Tolerance, acceptance, diversity - good for all.

“All drivers are murderers in waiting”

Dunno how you got that out of it. But it only takes one.

e-bikes - the banality of evil.

Ro5ey - It's maybe a subscriber extra bit.
DezB - I extrapolated 🙂
I guess I'm tired of tribalism and polarised views on stuff.
Be open to other stuff and keep cycling in perspective is what I got from it.

Thats just a working hypothesis surely.

Theres a difference between that sensible mind set and actively screaming to anyone that will listen that anyone who ever lived and got behind a driving wheel/sat on a pushy/wore red socks is one step away from killing all the baby robins.
