some absolute fucking cocksocket wannabe silly commuter racer twat acting like a massive bell-chief on my way home this evening.
am going past balham towards tooting on cs7 route and have taken left lane and am doing about 26mph on the garmin. pedestrian crossing up ahead changes, I throw a shoulder check as I just ease up on the pedals to make sure no cars are on my arse before I hit the brakes properly. see a red flash just disappear to my left from literally behind my wheel, turn the other way and this cunt is overlapping my bike by 2/3rds coming up my inside, he then veers away towards the kerb. the prick had been drafting literally on my back wheel and the second I eased up nearly smashed into the back of me.
lights change and I stomp off as I'm in a determined mood, he can't keep up with me off the lights so I make my way to junction by tooting bec am crossing the junction with a cyclist ahead of me slowing and a car 2 feet to my left and this prick thinks that's the perfect place to make his 'jump' nearly forcing me into the kerb and the cyclist ahead into a parked car in front of her she'd started to move around.
he then used the downhill to finally show some speed pushing a big gear and turned off down one of the roads along tooting high street before I had a chance to draw alongside again and call him out for the fucking bell chief he was.
then I saw Jah Tim strolling along moments later which cheered me up and I lost the anger (until I just got in and the rage bubbled up again).
nodder in red jersey and pollution mask, you ride like a cunt and you're not as fast as you like to think you are...
