I think you’ll find that “Sanatander” is 4 syllables itself.

He also negotiated the terrible contract with Barclays.

Yeah, because you don’t have to pay to remove them from a dock.

#24

can they not lock them to something other than a dock though? a fence or something?

or does the back wheel just lock to itself?

The london cycles have to be docked at the end of a ride for it to stop charging you.

You could lock it up somewhere else if you wanted, but it would be costing you money.

actually it’s just a good point.

What is the point? I mean, what if Manchester City Council had paid for the bikes instead of “Chinese investors”? Is it because it’s foreign, private money that it’s OK for people to disrespect and ruin a useful, inexpensive public service?

OK let’s just demonise poor people for having bad morals instead then.

Does it suggest anywhere that it’s poor people who were nicking or vandalising the bikes?

#38

actually yes

“My Mobiking nemesis just couldn’t understand why I would object to his behaviour, just as the young degenerates I have seen pulling wheelies on hacked Mobikes in my local park can’t understand that they are spoiling things not just for everyone else but themselves, too.”

Where does it say anything about poverty there? Moral poverty, maybe, in the word “degenerates”.

Chinese investors or otherwise, that’s no reason for people to just constantly be cunts and ruin potentially nice things. More bikes in cities = fewer cars = happier world. People are provided with a good bike service, people throw bikes into canals.

People are the worst.
