This morning's commute and other commuting stories

Got clipped from behind by a roadie this morning. Comedy of errors on both parts with both managing to stay upright and no damage done.

Was worth it for the nice chat and a good look at his beautiful:

Lovely ride in this morning. Light traffic, few cyclists, no pedestrians in the road.

Would do again.

[Apologies for lack of ethnic content to this post]

No one at E&C was vaguely unsettling this am. All action came in the last two minutes when a Chinese girl walked into my back wheel while I was stopped at lights. She almost face planted, tried to style it out...unsuccessfully. Then almost immediately I feel in love with a blonde on a green SS, rapha, filtering skills and an abusive mouth to clear peds out of her way....sigh!

Chinese? Are you sure?

Anyway. I got the bus.
Cyclists are wankers.

Same here - very quiet. Even at E&C!

I did see a guy on a Genesis with his forks the wrong way round though. He looked white, but could have been Irish.

I rode my bicycle to work today.
5/10 - would consider riding my bicycle to work again.

This morning was scarily quite from start to finished, give a man a foot and he will undertake, yes you in the man in the Garmin bibs and world champion top.

Lovely moment last night when I almost got squashed under a cement mixer, when going down the very clear CS7 only one other dude in front on the left some put some Strava effort in only for the Hodor looking chap to swing all the way right given me no space managed not to clip him or the cement mix. Shouted at him to shoulder check. We stopped at the lights and a scooter rider asked if I was ok, then had a massive pop at Hodor ride for being a a dick. It appears that once I went passed him said scooter when left when Hodor swing left.

8/10, even when it's a clear road its not.

This morning like many morinings,

The small roundabout at the top of Greenwich park, why do i get irritated by cyclists that bomb over and don't look left as I am pretty sure some drivers dont consider that little road from blackheath and don't give way to the right.

also why the fuck do people go through the entry side of the gate at the bottom and act surprised when a car is coming the other way ??

Everyday this gets on my tits....bar that it was quite a nice day again. May move over to 48*17 as I am feeling athletic at the moment.

I hope some of you don't ride as angrily as you type. It's hard to decipher meaning from a lot of these posts...

Answer: None of the above. The correct etiquette at a red light is to trackstand like a boss, and let everyone eat your dust as soon as the light hits green.

The OG is correct.

Bow before him, worthless scum.

No not sure looking at that. She had a low centre of gravity and was vaguely yellow looking so I went with Chinese.

Creepy obvious alias troll is creepy and obvious.

Sounds familiar. I tried it again today but the boss didn't like my choice of underwear so I had to get dressed.

They're not as well spoken after a shoe-ing.

Had not very nice first part of my Wednesday commute. A wv polo overtook me and turned left from the right lane cutting my way. I was surprised that I managed to stop in that short distance. Had my gopro on, here is the video https://youtu.be/K4_9nbsJJ9k

where is that? What time? I had an incident with a silver vw polo going over vauxhall bridge at 8.15ish this morning. Probably not the same one but.....

What a dick move, at least you can show this to the relevant authorities, not that they'd do much but still.

This mornings commute was 63 seconds faster than yesterday, proof that the tube strike cause unremitting travel chaos.

I cycled in. My legs were sore. I can't decide if I hurt more when riding or not riding.

1st time I've ever cycled into work 2 days in a row. I feeling strangely fit and well.

I was approaching to Lewisham roundabout from Catford about 1pm
