How Much do you 'Love' your Bicycle?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

How Much do you 'Love' your Bicycle?

I'm trying to be delicate here but below is a link to an article in today's UK Telegraph about a guy who just loves his bicycle a bit too much?

This is stupid. I mean, there's a whole circle of stupidity here. First, you have the dude having "relations" with his bike. There are psychological issues there, plus, you know, there might be sharp edges. There's also the question of him not reacting to people knocking on his door.

Next you have the staff, who didn't just let the whole scene go. I mean, you did open the door on the dude - it's not like he was out in public doing this.

I'm amazed the police knew of a crime that applied here. "Hmm.. Sex with bike. That's a 101.34.52. Call it in, Harry." I'm curious about the theory behind the charges. Was it for the accused behavior with the bike, or is it because the accused wasn't wearing anything even though he should have known the door was about to open?

On one hand, there might be justification if they're charging him for "flashing" the hotel staff. On the other, if the charges rested on him having his way with an inanimate object then I worry that it's only a matter of time before someone is arrested for similar acts with other inanimate objects, such as "molesting" a condom.

Sometimes sex with an inanimate object has nothing to do with love.

There are places where sex acts outside of the standard fare used for reproduction are actually illegal. Texas has laws like this.

what man and a woman and a goat with a bike do behind closed doors is their business!

granted, this is very odd...but i can't believe having sex with an inanimate object in privacy is illegal. what about women with didlos?

I'm trying to work this through in my head, but its not working. Does "pavements" refer to something different in England than in the rest of the world? I certainly hope so, as humping the street/sidewalk/driveway/front stoop is beyond desperation. Don't they have an abundance of sheep in merry ol' England?
