AYR, Scotland, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- A Scottish man caught in a compromising position with his bicycle received three years probation with a threat of prison time if he re-offends.
The 51-year-old man was nude from the waist down in a hotel room when he was caught by hotel workers simulating sex on the bike, the Daily Telegraph reported.
During a hearing last month, Robert Stewart was listed as a sex offender after admitting a sexual breach of the peace, the British newspaper said. He wound up in Ayr sheriff court on Scotland's west coast.
"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," Sheriff Colin Miller said. "I have never heard of a 'cycle-sexualist.' "
Stewart's attorney said his client, battling an alcohol problem, thought "he was having fun" when the maids entered the room.
"He does not think it is funny any more," attorney Gerry Tierney said.
