Not sure if this the forum section but it made me smile

"Bicycle is the slow death of the planet."
A banker made the economists think this when he said:
“A cyclist is a disaster for the country’s economy: he doesn’t buy cars and doesn’t borrow money to buy. He don't pay insurance policies. Don't buy fuel, don't pay to have the car serviced, and no repairs needed. He doesn't use paid parking. Doesn't cause any major accidents. No need for multi-lane highways.
He is not getting obese.
Healthy people are not necessary or useful to the economy. They are not buying the medicine. They dont go to hospitals or doctors.
They add nothing to the country's GDP.
"On the contrary, each new McDonald’s store creates at least 30 jobs—actually 10 cardiologists, 10 dentists, 10 dietitians and nutritionists—obviously as well as the people who work in the store itself."
Choose wisely: a bike or a McDonald's? It's something to think about.

PS: walking is even worse. Pedestrians don't even buy a bicycle!

"I forgot" that I am not allowed to make jokes about the events of the day; and for that I sincerely apologise.

I'll try my luck! Shhhhhhh.

I'm going Rick Astley for Prime Minister!

He will NEVER;

Give you up
Let You Down
Run Around

Desert You
Make You Cry
Say Goodbye
Tell A Lie
or
Hurt You.

Go Rick. (y)
