This, however, is not the point
[permalink]
Following our incredibly well received, most recent article about cyclists and their behaviour in public environments, I thought we should follow up with a few more examples to further put our point across.
As I quite clearly responded to one cyclists lament that cyclists have a "democratic right to wear whatever they want," your rights are not the issue here - the issue is that your outfits are offensive and you look like a tool. Case in point was the photograph of the cyclist indulging in some extreme newspaper reading at Giovanni's in Green Point (which the cyclists refer to as "Gio's," thus further exposing how out of place they are, whether they're wearing lycra and helmets, or not.
The extent to which this cyclist looks like a tool in this environment should be taken to extremes so as to thoroughly prove or disprove the point. The 2oceansvibe design team put some helmets on some other individuals to see if there is ever a situation, besides on a bike, where this clothing does not make one look like a tool.
Check it out.

I think we get the point. And, whilst I have never owned a cycling helmet, I did feel it necessary to do my very best to see if I could make a helmet of sorts, look cool when being used for something other than it's primary function. I got my scooter helmet and tried to write a couple of lines. Not ideal.
