Woah there little lady – you better put that bicycle aside.  You could hurt someone with that thing!  Y’see, girls can’t ride bikes!

Today’s Irishman’s Diary is curmudgeonly, sexist tripe.  According to Seán Mac Connell, “There is nothing as frightening, dangerous or scary as a woman on one of them new bikes put on to the streets of Dublin last September to supposedly make our lives better.”

Actually there is, and it’s a stuck in the past old man being given a platform to voice his baseless opinions.
