and so it begins… apparently there’s some cops busting riders on Canning st, just near where it crosses Alexandra. not sure what they’re bustiing them for though.
I’m not putting them on my bike. I’ve decided to mount them and make them into a trophy which I shall create a shrine for.
I’m actually already feeling washed up after saturday - I think that was the peak of my sporting career. Some kid passed me the other day and all I could manage was to shake my first at him while yelling “back when I was your age, I won an alleycat, you little punk! I used to be fast!” but he was already too far up the road to hear me.
tram safety zones are the actual tram stops - to get this fine as far as i know you would have to ride on the right of the barrier separating the tram stop from the road.
keep in mind the cops assigned to traffic duties are the ones with the highest ticket counts in their early careers - hence you meet all the pricks on the road.
I was stopped by a police member on Swanston St a couple of years ago during one of these blitzes - I asked why I was pulled over and he told me they were identifying cyclists caught doing the RIGHT thing on Swanston St, with names going into a draw for a new Avanti bike.
Being of a naturally suspicious turn of mind I rang Vic Police and it turns out it was legit. Funny things happen in a big city.
What a load of shit. They knew exactly what they were in for when they signed up for the position. Its like complaining everyday that the kitchen is a fucking hot and hectic place to work in when you have chosen your career as a cook/chef.
And just because they have a shit job doesn’t give them the right to be assholes to the community.
i got done today at fed square for no helmet, guy was nice though, could have nabbed me for no bell, brakeless, no reflectors and shit, but just got a 46 helmet fine
Are you sure?
So if I had lost all my demerit points and was riding a bicycle because I did not have a licence, would that then mean I’d lose it for longer?
Maybe I should should have slipped ‘New World Order’, ‘Global Enslavement via debt’, ‘Free Man Society’, "Totalitarian Regime’ and ‘History Repeats’ in there for you
