Excessive judicial discretion is where the ACT’s criminal justice system has gone wrong, so I predict the Mully Cup will soon be subject to the same derision.

Do cycle threads have some sort of handicap?

They have to. Otherwise some form of anti-cycling thread (let alone a summation of all the anti-cycling threads in each month!) would win every time…
It’s better this way!

Indeed – though the though of those meaty-calved, spindly-armed, cranky roidy cyclists getting the Mully of all gongs would have been a beautiful and fearful asymmetry …

I think so. Not that it’s terribly important, but this sentence needs an update:

“…to the entity stimulating the most comment on this website…”

Because it’s not always the “most” commented discussion that gets the gong, which is fine, in fact it’s probably better and more fun to open it to a more judgmental approach.

The cycling threads are just the same tired material rehashed every time anyway.

“Cyclists can ride where they want”
“I’m a motorist out of my way”
“I saw a cyclist do something stupid”
“I saw a motorist do something stupid”
“I’m a pedestrian, a cyclist rode by without dinging their bell”
“Damn pedestrians on my cycle path””
“Damn cyclists on my roads”

I agree entirely.

Really, no other story stood a chance.
