It's true, I read it in the cycling freesheet in Oregon.
They seem to have a similar problem to London in that there has been a recent surge of people taking up cycling, who run red lights and stop signs, mow down grannies, invade Poland, take your pick.
What interested me was that in the list of things deemed Bad were brakeless fixies (endangering others, well, fair enough), no head protection (whatever), running red lights, running stop signs, riding on the pavement, no lights at night and
"riveted leather saddles."Brooks over here are a fashion statement, much like Rapha, I think, and confined to the granny-mowing community.
