As the person who initially said that I do a lot of wheelsucking, here's my justification:
It's not like I do it all the time, and I'm not on their back wheel, I just catch up to them and don't overtake. Because I'm usually doing it to someone who's demonstrated pushy road behaviour (see my OP), I know that pushing past them, sometimes requiring a fair bit of effort, will only provoke a leapfrog retaliation. This happens maybe once a week.
This isn't happening in traffic or through lights and stuff. I'm not racing, I'm just being a low-level annoying dick to someone who's demonstrated low-level annoying dick behaviour to me. London's a great city.
Anyone who says otherwise is being an idealistic tit who is not considering the real world situation of the turd who 'has' to be in front of everyone else anywhere.
