I saw it as simply making a point, a statement, a 'this is normality' sort of thing. No big deal, really.Surely if he was that concerned he should an oil free method of transport.
I managed to get chance to see the whole thing on the web and found it sensationalist albeit he was saying all the right things. Too much fancy footage-work and soundbites for me. Ho hum.
