]]> Comment on How even the most expensive Brompton pays for itself by MARTIN COLUCCI http://cycling-intelligence.com/2012/01/15/how-even-the-most-expensive-brompton-pays-for-itself/#comment-1398 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 22:56:35 +0000 http://cycling-intelligence.com/?p=680#comment-1398 I live in the USA. Gas guzzling capitol of the world. I have been cycling most of my life and seriously since 1991 ( commute to work)….and all year long. I have a decent stable of bikes. I latched on to a Brompton about a year ago……. after being curious for some time. I have Moulton’s , Trek carbon fiber for performance, and full size touring Trek 520. The Brompton has become my go to bike. I am currently in Florida USA and could not think of bringing along any other than Brompton. One thing though. I need to cover it when I park. I am getting worn out explaining this unique folding bicycle. But also rather enjoy the looks on the faces when I go thru the fold. I now have 3 Bromptons. The wife loves hers. Her only comment is ” this bike is so easy”.

He is a great rider but as a spokesman for safer riding he is apt at getting his sideburns caught up in his mouth.

I recently survived a near fatal accident with an hgv . September 10th 2010 , Long lane ,London se1 an hgv ran over me trapping me underneath. Police and courts invoked hgb driver was convicted of careless driving and sentenced to £100.00 fine and 4 points on his license. Two years on I still suffer from physical and psychological injuries. I don’t cycle its not worth it , the judges , courts, drivers don’t care. I am a statistic and was blamed by the driver and defence council. I stopped at a red light and the hgv ran me over. The goverment , the mayor a the judges must get serious about sentancing
