Default It's all getting a little MCN in here

Is it me or in the last few days have things turned a little....er..... well to quote MCN:

"THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL BIKERS!!!"

The number of Car/bike interfaces seems remarkably high of late. Is this usual for the time of year? Having not been a biker for long enough to get a frame of reference, it does seem a little Death Or Glory out there. More so then the summer.

Normal or are the SV riders being picked on by fate this year?

MCN do seem to have a bit of an Us vs them paranoia in every news article they write. Can get a bit tiring after a while

nothing unusual about trying, it's just they happen to be suceeding more at the moment.

MCN does dilute important issues when it bangs on about less important stuff with the same voraciousness.

I think there were quite a few interfaces thorughout the summer this year so I think its pretty consistent.

You can't have both of them out, Big Sam Allardyce can only replace one of them!
