As long as there is maybe some Labrador puppies involved I’m happy. ---

Fark, I get so jealous seeing all the awesome bike lanes in 'berra. I keep thinking I’m gonna get slashed and chopped up by some berko civil servant becuase it seams so surreal to have all these special roads and passes that out you on a class above cars. ---

![](http://www.kenyalabradors.com/chocolate_lab_puppies/images/chocolate_lab_pup.jpg) Spirito speaks the truth - must be a Radelaide Eastern suburbs thing. More hi-vis my side of town. My future commute I doubt I’ll see too many other cyclists. Most are afeared of the Port River Expressway. ---

> [@spirito](#): > > Radelaidian’s complaining about their shitty commute’s = Hilarial™® > > Spend a week commuting in Sydney and you’ll think your Adelaide commute is bliss wonderful like some tampon commercial. I don’t wanna sound dismissive but you don’t know how good you have it. Yep, this is pretty much what I reckon too. Hearing southerners complain about antics in the bike lanes is totes lol: I mean, BIKE LANES. Anywhere outside central Sydney if there’s a bike lane all the cyclists stop and give each other wristies, cos we’re so happy to have an actual fucking bike lane. Seriously, the friendliest cyclists in Australia are on that one tiny stretch of bike path in Parramatta, cos they’ve just been battling with sociopathic tradies and mental p-platers for the last 20kms. ---

To the one guy that sucked my wheel last night, obviously you are an idiot… it had been raining pretty much all day and I can’t even imagine the amount of water / road grime / etc that would have been flicking up into your face. ---

Oh this thread is the funniest shit I have read in such a long time! I’ve been sitting here biting my hand / sniggering at my desk for like the last 10 minutes going through everything trying not to burst into outright laughter! I am actually jealous of your commutes/commuter antics. The only taste I get is a small window on weekday arvo’s when I go out for a training ride, or all the fred’s on early sat/sun mornings trying to ride/exercise as well. Can’t wait to get home and read the BNA threads ha going to be hilarious!!! Best thread/reading on here in ages!!! ---
