Cycling hater
Posted: 10 Dec 2017, 8:41pm
I attended last years south Wales velothon, as a spectator. I took a fair few photos as i was testing my new lens. I posted to photos on facebook under the title 'photos of the velothon'. The only contact i have had from the page has been anti cycling rants and anti velothon rants even though it is quite obvious i am not affiliated or representing whoever does organise the Velothon.
When i receive this anti cycling or cyclist rant i always share it with the community so they can make an informed choice where their custom is not welcome.
The business concerned is this: A [deleted] cafe in Cardiff
The owner's thoughts about the Velothon are :
"So you will be destroying small businesses best day of the week by wrecking havoc over the streets of cardiff yet again but this year on a Sunday’s"

" I should think that small businesses which have selfish, grumpy owners will be ruining their businesses all year round and won't need any help from me.

The cafe owner's thoughts:
" Ha ha ha ! Your so funny, I’m actually talking about myself and ten other small independent traders who have a community spirit like no other in cardiff we have little old ladies and gentlemen along with young mums and students who are all happy to have us work and live and thrive in our community then suddenly fit one day several days a year we get huge events in Carfiff such as the Velethon come and destroy our businesses with Rd closures and diversions stopping us get to work or stopping our lovely customers get to us , in 2016 Cardiff closed Rd’s in and around the city 17 times at weekends one of them being Easter Saturday then in 2017 cardiff closed Rd’s 23 times for different events such as Velethon.
If you Lycra clad cyclists cared about the environment as much you proclaimed then you would be concerned about the entire environment including small businesses like us and all our he good work we do in the community and in only using organic produce with s lowest carbon footprint as possible but in reality you are not interested in community or environment your all only interested in your selves.
You are the ones who are sad for we shall rejoice take a day off and go away from cardiff to avoid the lot of you
