When being a roadie and sprinting along some wide/multi-laned roads I have a bad habit of not removing my hands from the drops. In my defense I never pull out without making a massive gesture of looking over my shoulder and getting the attention of any car behind me. So far so good - probably because if there's a car I look three times before moving. I indicate on junctions and whenever safe to do so. I guess I do also acknowledge any driver with a wave if they have been stuck behind me.
Should probably get back to always indicating.
I'd have liked the two different riders yesterday up N London to have done something when weaving through lanes and to have not just rolled through every red.
