Ant McPartlin Kicked Lime Bikes, Says They Drove Him Out of London! 🚲
TV star Ant McPartlin reveals his hilarious (and frustrating) reason for leaving London: those ubiquitous Lime bikes! Find out why he 'kicked' them.
Popular TV presenter Ant McPartlin has shared a surprisingly relatable and amusing anecdote, revealing that the ubiquitous Lime bikes played a significant role in his decision to move out of London. The star admitted to a moment of sheer frustration, even resorting to kicking a pile of the green and yellow rental bikes.
McPartlin, 50, who famously forms one half of the beloved duo Ant & Dec, recounted his exasperation with the e-bikes, particularly those parked outside his former home in Wimbledon. "I’m so f***ing sick of them," he reportedly exclaimed, explaining that the bikes would often be left haphazardly, blocking pavements and causing annoyance.
His breaking point came when he encountered a particularly obstructive row of Lime bikes. In a moment of pure annoyance, he confessed to "kicking" them over. While humorous, McPartlin's story highlights a common frustration among city residents regarding the often-unregulated parking of shared e-bikes and scooters. It seems the celebrity's move from the bustling capital was, in part, a quest for peace from these two-wheeled menaces.
