There was quite a case concerning this claim some time ago. A bus driver refused to take a handicapped man with his small bicycle on the bus, claiming that bicycles are not allowed on buses without special provisions for that purpose (racks etc.). The passenger claimed that his bicycle is a "compensation tool" for him, just like a wheelchair would be - and should be treated that way. In the aftermath, the transport service company accepted that claim, apologized and stated that the driver was in the wrong. The passenger happens to be a member of one quite special band.. so a song came from this event. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qacVvm-8ao Bicycle as a “wheelchair”… yes.

It took me  a few moments to register the unusual "comic strip" as I too flicked right past it for the same reason! Ooops! I thought I was the only one that happened to.

Especially tadpole recumbent trikes. Even worse when you have to hold the visibility flag arm in one hand 'cos otherwise it would jam the lift door....     The thought reminds me of an occasion where I was taking a rotary clothes dryer (a wedding present) from Luton to Birmingham (not Alabama) by public transport. Bus, train, tube (=subway), train and bus again. Gave me an insight into the problems faced by pole vaulters....</span> One situation where recumbents are less handy than wedgies.

Same with interweb pages. That explains why I have just spent five minutes trying to work out why the comic strip wasn't appearing - just realised that what my eyes had flicked away from as an advert WAS the strip. Good one too. D'oh! I don’t read adverts – in newspapers I subconsciously register “advert” and my eyes go on to the next news item. Same with interweb pages.

D’oh!
