There all riding somebody else's bike, my lad had his bike nicked while he lived in London, so the wife felt sorry gave him hers few weeks latter that one was nicked. So gave him my rock hopper, yea nicked. Bought himself a fix wheel basic, nobody touched it.

The need for fresh news all the time is what brings about these bollocks articles , I wouldn't hold much weight in what they say as Im sure there just published to make people click on them building up the views on the site gaining them more money . 

This.

If there is any substance in this it is here in the article..... a specifically bourgeois sensibility” that simply doesn’t resonate with many black and Asian Londoners. A Muslim woman called Jasmine said that riding a bicycle would, for her, be “socially unacceptable”. A group of Asian women thought the idea that they might cycle “ridiculous” almost by definition. A young, black professional, Leanne, indicated that for her, unlike white peers, being “a cyclist” would not signal high social status: “When you’ve made it, you buy a car, not a bicycle.” Another, Marvin, said he’d only consider cycling if he became “really poor”.

I  keep telling people that I am poor and got nuttin, but they don't believe me. Sometimes I ride around the village on a clapped out bike. Perhaps I should point this fact out to them. BIKE = POOR. Some black fellow said so.

You're lucky ! Most of the cyclists round here are on the f***ing pavement !!!

And so are a lot  the cars, round where i live there is hardly space for pedestrians to walk as most folk who drive use the pavement for parking.
