@William.
Was walking my tools down to Shoreditch High street station this evening after a long week, found 200+ cyclists blocking the road and pavement outside the station. Hello, excuse me, I said, trying to find my way through, and instead of making way a few of them purposefully blocked my way and said, 'sorry you'll have to wait'. I didn't wait, but carried on. It was lucky they got the message before a confrontation occurred. I don't understand what these groups hope to achieve by getting in everyone's way for the sake of it.
Edit: I shouldn't judge the whole group by the behaviour of a few, however those who purposefully moved their bikes to block my way did the rest of the group no favours.
