Are we saying we want to be spanked?

Seen in the morning papers...





It would be mean to say DUH! But it would be strange if there were a reduction in bike accidents while there were more bikes on the street, wouldn't it?

Prague police make an excellent point, though:


“The network of bicycle paths has not been finished yet, and we have not managed to get cyclists out of the main roads,” says VladimĂ­r Stupka, head of the traffic police. “Also, not all cyclists are disciplined; two or three will ride next to each other or without lights at night.”


Indeed. Most bikers we know -- starting with ourselves -- fundamentally need to disciplined. Want to be disciplined.
