The poor cyclist

One really has to feel sorry for all these poor cyclists. They pay nothing for the facilities they have. Cycle lanes, ride on the pavement without being fined, special places to park their bikes. Do I need to go on? Oh! and god help a motorist that hits one when they ride straight across zebra crossings, red lights and anything else you can think of that a car driver would be pilloried for. In my humble opinion they come second only to artic drivers and white van man. Do I ride a bike? you bet.
