Rage building... red mist descending...

Pathetic little chalk chewers who think they've got fuck all say in anything that happens one inch outside their premises.  I'm damn sure that at 17 I'd have been well up for telling them to go screw a goat, and rocking up anyway.  The only way to deal with these jumped up Little Hitlers is to challenge them.

students are not allowed to travel to school my motorised transport of any kind.

its motorised!

why should he be allowed to break the rules?

what he should do is be a little cleverer and park his bike out of site and leave his helmet in a mates car.

One of the points

of going to school is not just to get a formal educaiton but to learn how to make the rules work for you. That's why kids who go to public school do so very well. No privately educated kid would have gotten caught out by such an obvious rule - he or she would have parked around the corner and had a chain to attach the helmet to the bike, or an agreement with a friend to keep a helmet in their car, or had a big kit bag with them. They'd have also had a whole raft of responses regularly:

"I wasn't coming into school on the bike, I was meeting up with a friend and walked on to school."

"I brought my motorbike in for a service and left it parked there."

"I'm selling my bike and brought it in for someone to view it."

Blah blah blah.

There are so many ways to get around this I am really concerned for the pupil involved - has he no smartness at all?

Actually, I know exactly what happened here - he's got his eyes on a girl and wanted to show off, or knew what time some of his mates were coming in and wanted to make sure he was seen getting of his Aprilia. Fair enough - who wasn't the same at that age? But if you break the rules, you have to know how to get off them or live with the consequences. Boo-hooing to a national publication of "It's my rights to do whatever I want and it's not fair and I'm so persecuted and, like, it's my human rights and stuff" is just a bit crap really.

And anyway, my dad got expelled for riding his BSA Bantom along a school corridor to get it to the metalwork workshop to fix the brakes. He didn't complain!

Maybe he should also ask if he can breathe air or be allowed to speak to other humans!! Seriously how flawed are these arguments assuming what he did wrong etc, pure assumption. This kid has every right to ride his bike and as fellow bikers we know one has to be respectful of a bike otherwise you are dead. Saying he should hide it etc is bullshit even though the school made this mad rule doesnt mean its ok and lets not forget its a public school, so who made this head teacher god??

what a total and utter piss take

there is no way in hell they can threaten to kick him out unless hes been poping wheelies in the school car park it sounds like his 6th form or whatever is run by a bunch of slack jawed ignorant morrons who have never done anything fun in there lives i hope he burns the place down with the fuckers inside

so thats my calm well thought out response
