The Age: Man attacks bystanders with oBikes.

[Kronos]

No words for this nonsense really.

Nasty angry little man.
The issue here isn't bikes, they just provide the trigger. Pick any one of many, Muslims, gays, women, cyclists, the list goes on.
My concern is the level of similar nasty little (and big) men and women barely capable of controlling such anger.

So you don't need to read the article

Short version: blokes with bikes get onto train. Bozo on the train believes (erroneously) they aren't allowed on the train. Bozo escalates and decides he needs to eject bikes from train.

Only upside is that Bozo can only hit them with his fists. If he'd been in his car...

[Kronos]

The upside is this guy has self-identified as a public nuisance so if he is ever run into (no pun intended) again we know who he is. If he shows this level of intent with a commuter on a community bike we have no second questions to what he would do behind the wheel of a car.

There’s lots. Too many now. Trains seem to attract them. Who needs this?

Too true. Pick a topic, any topic, and someone is willing to put someone in hospital over it. No matter how trivial.

I caught public transport on a dodgy line for years. I'm very glad I don't have to any more.

Oh. I thought from the title the oBikes were weapons. Other way makes more sense (barely..)
