• Was riding down here to get to my company car park at the far end on the left and was already by the point where you can see the band of light on the floor in the streetview photo when I heard a skip lorry turn in behind me (shoulder checked to confirm). my legs are a bit knackered as had a heavy week already but was still doing about 16-18mph but preparing to slow and turn into the car park and you can't tell until you're on top of the turn if the gate is open or not so you can't just smash your way off the road.

    the skip lorry floored it and sat a foot off my back wheel the entire length of the street even as I held my hand out to indicate i was about to turn and I think if I hadn't moved over to my far left just prior to turning he genuinely would have clipped me as he actually accellerated past as I began to turn and he had barely enough space to pass.

    the fucking cunt had come from old st and at the end of the road turned back towards old st. so the only reason he was even there in the first fucking place was he was using it as a rat run to avoid the traffic leading up to the goswell road junction.

    coupled with the fact I had 2 separate blowouts yesterday on my front wheel (tyre changed last night but couldn't be sure it wouldn't go again) which immediately required me to come to a stop. if it had gone pop with him behind me I genuinely believe he would have killed me as he had a full skip on the back and zero stopping distance.

    Or using it to turn around rather than trying to effect a u-turn on Old St itself.

    Still sounds like cunty behaviour.
