If you read properly, you'd see that the thread was about filtering through a compact tunnel. I notice you aren't from down here and possibly havent ridden/driven through it. So in that case your comment wasn't really needed as it meant nothing.

There was no 'intelligent retort' to your comment for the simple fact that your comment was completely pointless and didn't warrant an enthusiastic reply.

How many posts I have made in this thread has absolutely no bearing, you've made plenty, and I guarantee I hold your opinion in an even lower regard than you hold mine.

The statement I commented on has everything to do with the thread in that it was a condemnation of a foolish point of view.
From what part of that do you deduce that I haven't read the entire discussion?

I have not ridden through this tunnel, though I would like to think myself capable of deciding when to filter and when not to myself.

Was my comment as pointless as, for example, somebody casting a broad assertion that people deserve some great misfortune for doing something they do not agree with?

We all know the law and we all know why those laws are in place. I agree some laws are there for silly reasons and dont seem useful, but some laws are in place for a reason and that reason is a good one.

I cant be bothered to reply anymore to this post.

If anything I hope this thead has enlightened yourself and others to how other commuters that use the tunnel feel about the riding styles of filterers (I think that made sense...).

At the end of the day, its your choice, you take the risks, not me.

Be careful

You were doing so well, if only you had said the "riding style of some filterers" you've have almost been there.

What are those?

Me and my mates think they are to signify the maximum amount of riders allowed on the grid for the Traffic Light Grand Prix

Add me to the disagrees please, especially if it means I have to ride to a system with Hi-viz on while I hold up traffic on a BMW.

Now that's what I call an entrance. You sure you're in the right place mate?

haha, that is perhaps truly the best entrance to a forum i've ever come across.

See how powerful this thread is. The overlord is here to speak.
