Is biking [now] bad for the environment?
Beat them with sticks. Badly.
Obviously going to well-attended events to attract attention.
The race was on Saturday so I guess it’s actually 976 days left...sometime in March of 2025
All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
-h/t Bill Shakespeare
When exercising you exhale too much CO2…
Nope, just the environuts.
Until their Climatic Climax fails to occur.
I hate bicycles but it appears the French bicycle fans have the right idea.
Although you notice they didn’t try blocking a mud bog race...
Any and all human activity is bad for the environment. Apparently we are an alien species invading Gaia.
“The race was on Saturday so I guess it’s actually 976 days left...”
Just for accuracy the TDF is a 21 stage race that takes place over 3 weeks.
As for the protesters, this occurred on at least 2 occasions with one incident causing the Pelton to stop suddenly which in turn caused a multi bike crash. And in that crash one very good cyclist fractured his shoulder.
Whopping these idiot protesters with a knotted plowline would be to good for ‘em
IMO.
“… enraged fans bowling into the road to pull, push and harry the protesters off the tarmac”
Disappointed to not see “beaten to a bloody pulp” in that list of actions.
“Pull, Push and Harry” sounds like a shyster law firm.
We used to have laws about blocking streets and jaywalking.
Why don’t these enviro whack jobs try blocking the Monaco Grand Prix and see how well that goes.
Hopefully, they kicked the s**t out of the protesters.
Isn’t that exactly what these nut jobs want to reduce the human population to 500 million people?
In their minds that should be poetic justice when the Earth’s climate brushes a few billion pesky humans off the planet.
I guess what might bother them is that most of them would be going with us meat eaters. They want control of who stays and who goes.
Socialist, want to decide the fair of billions.
“We used to have laws about blocking streets and jaywalking”
We’re talking about France here so who knows what the pertinent laws are or are not.
But I hope there was punishment and that it’s severe.
“Is biking [now] bad for the environment?”
Each rider has two-three chase cars. I suspect the Tour de France is the most polluting sport I the world. Hundreds of vehicles and heavy busses and trucks at the event.
