Surrey Canal Path (Peckham Pulse to Burgess Park) has been rammed every morning this week and there has been a lot of piss-poor riding.
Tuesday I heard what sounded a nasty bike v bike crash behind me.
Today some twat tried to overtake me at speed as I pulled right to cycle past a father walking his two young kids to school. I didn't shoulder check before I pulled out - which was wrong - but it should have been obvious I was going to as the only other option would be to plough into them.
I get why a few cyclists want to use that stretch as a racetrack but it isn't.
I wouldn't want to walk my young uns along there in the morning.
