Today on Mersey rail Northern line, bank holiday sunday and a seaside route, so they bung on 3 coach trains,get on and stand in doorway,no problems as the bike spaces is full of bikes, and the wheelchair space, naughtily has a bike in it.
Mrs Angry gets on with pushchair, despite another 5 doors available to enter by she chooses my doors, then she moans about bikes being on the train, about no seats, about having to stand,(seats where available, but she didnt want to share a bay with strangers),when it came to me turn to alight would she move faster than a constipated turd, no she blocked the door, till i said watch the oil on the bike.
Coming back a transformer station had caught fire, so no trains whatsoever, (electric trains)buses repalcing trains on a 28 station route, at one station i cycled past there where 5 prams waiting for the single repalcement bus.
But i did meet a chap on a Surly, who let me have a go on his bike, thanks.
Result ,never take a bike on a train on bank holidays.
