Retro bikes lead to non-aero brake levers.

Non-aero brake levers lead to toeclips.

Toeclips lead to a failure to release.

Failure to release leads to the Dark Side .

Seen on the train today:

Can't quite see on that last one, but is the chain on top of the kick stand  :o

That would be correct.The chain is below the kickstand.

I don't know whether the kickstand is tensioning the chain, or whether the chain is keeping the kickstand from scraping the ground all the time.

Carrying vast quantities of locks on a folding bike is a lower level of fail, too.

Vast numbers of locks which aren't being used . . .
