Dundee (unsafe for cycling)

Posted by MrPowers under Personal, Scotland/Dundee

There was once a time when you could rome about freely not worrying about crime, crackheads, and nutcases. How times have changed! Even when I had a bike I cannot imagine myself leaving it anywhere near the town center. I would be so scared that it would get stolen. But as this photo proves I don’t need to worry about that at all…. apparently its just the tires that people want and not the whole bike. I would much rather replace just the tires than the whole bicycle to be honest!

I was going for a walk to day and just so happened to pass it so I took a quick snap using the crappy camera on my 3 year old phone. This immediately reminded me of what happened to Alex and Jim and their bikes. They had theirs inside a secure apartment building yet somebody took it upon themselves to slash the tires on the two bikes!! So much for the locked doors keeping out the idiots which rome our streets. So the tires + wheels seem to be hot on the market at the moment, however I can’t see why so many people would want them….

I’ve got it! people are buying back their own bike parts. What an ingenious idea!! Why didnt I think of that!!
