    Cycling fanatic Boris Johnson is promising £50 repair vouchers as part of his coronavirus crusade to persuade people to get on their bike.

    The first vouchers will be available online late on Tuesday in England and the prime minister is also pledging more spending on cycle lanes, training and bikes on prescription from GPs.


    The aim of the bike repair vouchers is to encourage people to get their old bicycles out of the shed, fixed and safe to ride, so they cycle to the shops or see friends rather than use public transport.


    So NHS costs soar, as we have millions of ****ers riding 2 abreast chatting on 40mph roads, owning the ****ing place.

    Get people back to work, disrupt the roads with cyclists, and **** the roads up building more cycle lanes..

    And no **** will use them once the weather gets **** anyway...

    I’ve got a mountain bike in the garage that hasn’t been used for beards and needs a couple of repairs. I’ll take the 50 sheets get it sorted and lob it on eBay. Cheers Boris.

    Ain't gonna be many rusty old clankers in the shed that are getting fixed up for £50. That will probably get you a new chain and the labour to fit it.
    Good though if it's used in part to fix up some bikes and help get lard arses off the sofa <ok>

    Thinking of getting a bike to tide to work. Due to my manly and robust BMI, I’ll need one with a solid frame, not like the super light racer I used to have.

    I’m going to have to sell my car before October 2021 anyway, as it will fall foul of the new London Ultra Low Emissions Zone. Bit of a ****er that. Oh well.

    Ironically it appears to have got lardy gammon raging, as they see it as other people getting something that they won’t.

    Quite a few employers offer a bike to work scheme too. I think it comes out of your salary each month, but there are some massive discounts. Worth looking into .

    Just stop buying the Daily Mail for 3 months, the fat gammon can save themselves £50 that way.

    Yeah, my firm does offer something like that. A subsidised loan, I think. I have a mate who’s been offering to get me a good deal on a bike for yonks anyway. And I’ve got no excuse not to cycle to work really, as I can cycle through the park and miss all the traffic.
