    Have you never heard of discussing the Tour de France on uk.rec.cycling, for example?

    I have seen that happen. It was, of course, off-topic.

    May Sun rarely posts about his fellow chavs on bikes or about the
    chav-bikes themselves.

    He's a troll.

    Yes.
    Mmm recreational cyclists being interested in a cycle 'race' (and the accompanying technology etc) seems On T to me.

    When one reads of things like “…98.7% of respondents calling for the continued use of metric units”, it reminds one of the elections held in the Former Soviet Union! That didn’t end well either.

    Of course it's on topic - UK riders take part in the race.

    True, but note the "REC" part of the name .
    Would you say the 'tour' is a recreational event?
