Pedalling on Regardless

I came across this entry in CTC’s Cycleclips magazine today.

Now, I may be stepping into the firing line here, but it does seem to me:

1. he was pushing his luck
2. he was a bit unlucky
3. he must have met some jobs worth
4. he should have eaten more humble pie
5. two wrongs don’t make a right
6. the CTC could make better use of their defence fund.

Am I wrong?
