Lovely sunshine only spoilt by being told off twice
Got a telling off from the po po this morning for going through a just changed amber light on South Croxted Rd , my front wheel was over the line just as it changed, they drove behind me down the road over taking me when we neared the lights. The fact he went through them and he over took me while I was doing 20mph in 20mph zone facts he ignored when presented to him. Got to the point of 'mate do you want me to nick you' FOR WHAT
Second was from a hi-viz shinny new bike lady, telling me how I should ride. I may of uttered for fucks sake as she undertook, and again as she pulled in front of me, but it was the fact that I would filter up the side of bus where they was no room. 'Cyclist should always make their way to the front of the traffic' 'And that I was to far over from the kerb' I nodded in total agreement as she and he fellow shinny bikes got stuck as the bus moved off and I cycled passed.
10/10 would be told off again.
