Rubber bracelets - cut the circulation to my wrist causing amputation.<br /> Internet memes - errrmm,mmmmm,hmmmmm. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9848#post-106677 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 07:50:37 +0000 gembo 106677@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Trawled through the mad if typical comments and was rewarded at the end by the suggestion that thisis the ideal bike for getting to Krispy Kreme (remember them?).

After that, I'd be happy to let anyone have a shot on it. </p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/druidh2000/8571412877/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8519/8571412877_6794e63453_z.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/druidh2000/8571412877/">Untitled</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/druidh2000/">ScotRoutes</a>, on Flickr </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9848#post-106625 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 15:03:41 +0000 PS 106625@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Why do newspapers insist on the word 'Craze'?</em></p> <p>Because journalists work to tight deadlines and are increasingly dependent on producing generic and cliche-ridden copy? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9848#post-106624 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 15:01:50 +0000 Cyclingmollie 106624@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>WC: <em>"There's always Mr Pugsley on Patrol as well"</em></p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaputniq/6978351724/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8141/6978351724_075f399d25.jpg"></a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaputniq/6978351724/">#POP28 - Puglsey on Patrol on Parliament</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaputniq/">the Magnificent Octopus</a>, on Flickr </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9848#post-106621 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 14:25:17 +0000 Arellcat 106621@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Why do newspapers insist on the word 'Craze'?</em></p> <p>Yeah.
