Just heard this on the news.
Apparently a cyclists, forgot his name, went round and punctured 1700+ tyres from 600+ cars continuously for 10 days straight.
The reason he did this was few days earlier he was cycling and a car knocked him down, instead of stopping the car drove through a puddle and completely soaked him.
The guy got 18months. WOW!

He didn't even get knocked off his bike - he just got splashed by a car going through a puddle! Then he went bananas and slashed the tyres on hundreds of cars (none of which were the one that splashed him!).

Go here

If thats what he does when he get splashed by a puddle, I wouldn't want him to catch me doinking his wife (not that I am... but if I was...) Rolling Eyes

but... apparently there where 600 (or around that number) incidents that happened to the cyclist b4 with cars that he reported but no one did anything. Im fairly sure I heard something like that.

Well, I think it's rather amusing, the guy got "almost knocked off" then splashed. As a result had an 8 day rampage stabbing 1728 tyres with a sharpened screwdriver.

Bit mental if you ask me - at least no one was hurt.... still Laughing

Hi

Afraid I don't think it is too funny. Wonder how he would feel if I kicked him off his bike because a different cyclist had cut me up a week before.

All the best

Apparently his intention was just to damage the tyres or give them a slow puncture so they would go bang when the car was moving, what a twat. Should tape his bollocks to the saddle and send him down a long bumpy hill on just the rims Very Happy
