Recently on a local bunch ride through Dunedin, Te Anau hothead, Logan Edgar (19) was accused of breaching section 9.13 of the Cycling Otago Handbook. Section 9.13 is titled 'the no fun policy' and officials felt that Edgar had taken things beyond what the policy deems acceptable.
Both Edgar and compatriot, Mr. Melrose were slapped with a 150 euro fine after both riders engaged in laughter during the early stages of the bunch ride. What caused this drastic behaviour by the riders is unknown but rumours have been floating around the Otago peloton. One idea that has risen is that comedic semantics had been exchanged involving information on Mr. Melrose's out of season antics at popular local watering hole, Fever club.
However, this was not the end of things as Edgar is now facing a 2 bunch-ride ban after allogations that he referred to a passing female motorist as 'a minga' later on during the same ride he received the fine.
It is not yet known whether Edgar will appeal the ban.
