    Let's leave out the cyclist part. What goes through ones mind to **** into your hand in the first place. I say that chap isn't the full deck.

    There is too much that just doesn't add up here, though I am not going to ask for "photos or it didn't happen".

    Some people are just animals though.

    Though to the commenter on the Mirror who said if they had it happen to him he would get out and give the person a few slaps, do you really want to go there? You know what has (allegedly) just been in the persons hands.

    Further evidence that the Brits have devolved into a bunch of poo-flinging monkeys.

    Jesus, when you thought journalism could not sink lower. A facebook post of an unsubstantiated claim, with no witnesses or proof, other than one persons word.

    The only thing I'll say is that thanks to the mirror, at least the fictional cyclist would have something to wipe his arse with.

    If a man steps off a bike to fling poo, is he still a cyclist?

    can't fault the cyclist, he either reacted so quickly to an unfolding situation that he had time to unleash a lightning fast dump into his hand as he cycled or he had the foresight to plan ahead and bring it from home with him, expecting to deal with impatient motorists that day.

    A well prepared cyclist will always remember to top up his poo-niers before leaving home. :eek:

    May have retrieved one that he prepared earlier from his Musette?

    Perhaps the cyclist in question here was reliving the old days of the pro peloton before helmets became de rigueur (or indeed compulsory), when, if you were meandering about the countryside in the wake of a big bicycle race you came across a 'discarded' casquette at the bottom of a hedge or in a roadside ditch, you were well advised to thoroughly examine it at a bit of a distance with a long stick, as there was a strong possibility it might contain an 'appalling thing' that you really didn't want to stick your fingers into?
    Maybe he forgot his hat and was aiming for the hedge?

    Greg LeMond getting caught short at the '86 TDF springs to mind! :D

    (...and if I recall correctly, it was a domestique who had to provide the said casquette).

    This might be a case of a car driver without a mobile phone!

    it is a pun on people from that area being less developed than people from other areas. Much the same way people from Dublin make fun of me for being a Culchie. It is just a bit of fun bred out of insecurities developing from them knowing that, deep down, I am better than them.

    In what way are people from Gloucester less developed? Is it height or small tits or little mickies or what?
