Man who had sex with bicycle sentenced

By Auslan Cramb, Scottish Correspondent
Last Updated: 2:35AM GMT 15 Nov 2007

A "cycle-sexualist" caught half-naked in a compromising position with his
bicycle has been put on probation for three years.



Robert Stewart's unlikely perversion has been analysed in chat rooms around
the world after he was caught by two cleaners who walked in on him in a
hostel room.


The 51-year-old was naked from the waist down and when the women opened the
door he paused only to ask, "What is it, hen?", before continuing to "move
his hips back and forth as if to simulate sex".

The police were called and at a hearing last month Mr Stewart was placed on
the sex offenders' register after admitting a sexual breach of the peace.

The case has prompted criticism of "loony British laws", but he ended up in
court because the "shocked" cleaners said they had knocked repeatedly before
opening the door.

At Ayr sheriff court on the west coast of Scotland today, Mr Stewart was
sentenced for the rare offence and for a separate breach of the peace charge
for threatening a member of staff in a hostel in the town.

The court was told that alcohol was the cause of his problems, and he was
placed under the supervision of a social worker and warned that if he
re-offended he would be sent to prison.

Sheriff Colin Miller added: "In almost four decades in the law I thought I
had come across every perversion known to mankind, but this is a new one on
me. I have never heard of a 'cycle-sexualist'. "

Mr Stewart, an unemployed bachelor, has described the incident as a
misunderstanding caused by too much drink, and said claims that he was
having sex with the bike were "a load of rubbish".

His solicitor Gerry Tierney described his client as a "sad little man" who
was trying to tackle his drink problem.

He added: "When the cleaners came in, he thought he was having fun with
them. He does not think it is funny any more, and he has had to move home
three times because he has been targeted because of the offence."

Mr Stewart's exploits have also earned him multiple dishonourable mentions
on the internet.

After the story appeared on Telegraph.co.uk, it spread to Canada, the USA,
South Africa and Australia.

On chat forums north and south of the equator participants continue to
ponder some of the issues raised by the case.

Has the bicycle in question been taken into protective custody, asked one?

Other contributors wanted to know if he had been banned from bike sheds in
his hometown of Ayr, whether the bicycle in question was over 16 years old,
and exactly what sex with a bicycle involves.

But answers came there none today as Mr Stewart left court with his head
bowed and sought to hurry out of the limelight.

Finally a team without Quotas? And they have restricted SL to 227.

Go India - wrap up a win in 40 overs. With Yuvraj slaughtering the
spinners.

Dhoni tum sangarsh karo, hum tumhare saath hein!

Don't get me wrong. I am not saying South Indians should not be in the
team. When they produce good players - like the great Srikkanath -
they will be in the team. I am celebrating a team that has been formed
without regional quotas. This is not a North Indian team it is an all
Indian team based purely on merit.

Make it 4 -1 Boys!

Cricket sledgers face red-card system

August 28, 2008 - 10:29AM

Sledgers will be the target of a football-style card system in Gold
Coast cricket clubs this season.

But proposals for a similar system in Sydney grade cricket have been
damned by NSW's peak umpiring body.

The Gold Coast system - approved by Queensland's umpiring coach David
Orchard - will involve an immediate red card issued for any racist
comments made on the field.

Threats of violence would draw a yellow card.

"We are issuing the cards to crack down on the behavioural problems we
have had in cricket on the Gold Coast the last few seasons," the
district's cricket co-ordinator, John Fitzgerald, said.

"Although acceptable, there are levels of sledging that are not
acceptable - like when it gets personal."

Mr Fitzgerald said the system would only be used in first- and second-
grade competition and would affect about 26 teams.

He said sledging held a place in the sport, and in Australian life,
but a level of acceptable conduct had to be achieved on the pitch.

The program was expected to curb sledging within the first few weeks
of implementation, he said.

"There's gamesmanship and you do what you can to distract or get at a
player. As a fielder you make comments about their batting," he said.

"That's normal in Australia but there are levels that are unacceptable
- like when you start getting personal or racist."

The NSW Cricket Umpires and Scorers Association has criticised the
implementation of behaviour cards, also being considered in Sydney
grade cricket, and said strong leadership from captains was the real
answer to poor conduct.

"The reality is a breach of the code is a breach of the code," the
association's chief executive, Peter Hughes, said.

"It's not for the umpire to become judge and jury. He is a witness,
but by issuing a yellow card he is also prosecutor."

He said a system of cumulative yellow cards denied a player due
process and could lead to cricketers being unfairly banned from
matches without avenue for review.

"Better behaviour can be conducted some other way, by getting better
captains to lead the players," he said.

"Where the problem lies is that clubs don't pick the right captains.
Captains are responsible at all times for ensuring the play is
conducted within the spirit of the game as well as within the laws."

But Sam Loxton, a member of Don Bradman's Invincibles and patron of
the Gold Coast Cricket Club, supported the system.

He said Bradman would not have been happy with elements of the modern
game and that he had never heard the man sledge another player.

"I heard him congratulate people on their deeds," he told 2UE. "I want
to assure all and sundry that I revisited the Invincibles tape a week
ago and I was delighted to hear Doug Ring say that there was not one
word out of line on the cricket field in 1948."

A system to police sledging was considered by the International
Cricket Council at a committee meeting in Kuala Lumper this year. It
was met with opposition, including from former Test skipper Mark
Taylor.

dechuka,

It is more important for you to answer this post that exposes your
pure unadulterated blatant racism.
