    bicycle tax disc

    Every little bit helps.

    I'm nearly suing the council for disappearing down a pot hole whilst out on a walk at the weekend. I suppose it will not be long before I'm wearing a tax disc on my jacket.

    All bicycles should have number plates. And need a cycling license.

    I feel sorry for them with their car issues. But there is a minority of lycra lous who treat the pavement like they own it and give cyclists a bad name.

    These lycra louts need sorting out. Except threaded of course.

        I'm sure a pedestrian tax is somewhere on the New Labour agenda.

        PC Plod: "are those shoes taxed and insured Sir?"

        You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

          And may I see your license for using them?

            I had a 'funny' bike incident on Saturday. I must have had my jaw slightly open or something, coming down a hill reasonably fast when I hit a roadside crater while I was looking to the side and not noticing it. Apart from the usual almost being thrown up off my bike malarkey, my lower jaw snapped up so hard into my upper that for a second I thought I might have cracked a few teeth, especially the front ones. Fortunately all seem to be doing well. I must remember to try to keep my mouth closed though.

              And then you'd be busted for only having a Provisional Shoe Licence whilst walking unaccompanied.

                Shirley it would be cheaper & easier to increase VAT on bikes rather than adding a massive infrastructure to maintain a list of registered bikes.

                Yet another case of joined up thinking from government

                  Absolutely, there's no problem in the world that can't be solved by more government databases and red-tape.

                    I must admit I do sometimes marvel at the freedom you have with bikes.
