Last night waiting at lights, mountain bike warrior barrels through everyone just as light turns green, 30 seconds later and myself and a few others have caught up to him, and he is now in the centre of 4 or 5 people. What does he decide to do? Spit over his shoulder. Some of which hits me in the face. I get level with him (road is very quiet, ends in dead end with cycle path over pavement) and ask him if he just spat. Replies that he did, I tell him to be more aware of his surroundings because he's just spat in my face. He apologises. I cycle off ahead, but 30 seconds later he catches up to me and says "What, mate, what?!". Have to explain again (I think he thought I was originally telling him off for spitting in general), all he can muster now is a sheepish "it was an accident".
Poured water out of my shoes this morning.
