To bring a bit of balance to the discussion? URC is dominated by car- haters (some of whom are more honest about it than others) and those who automatically defend cyclists whatever happens. It's good to get some more reasonable posters involved in topics, and the URC trolls hate it when anyone disagrees with them (c.f. Crapman's "uk.tosspot" references...can't have awkward truths like "'Speed kills' is bollocks" being propagated), so it's quite fun as well, even if it's a bit cruel to mock the afflicted.
