Most of the time I see RLJing cyclists as being discourteous to those on foot but rarely particularly perilous to them. However last night while I was waiting at the lights on Rosebery Avenue where it intersects with Farringdon Road, some absolute weapon bombed through the assembled cyclists and through the crossing at a speed that would have caused some serious injury had he hit the woman who was crossing. It was really just lucky he didn’t, as he was riding with absolutely no regard for anyone, and you could see she was pretty shocked. Off he shot west down Farringdon Road. The same twat reappeared later on my route when he RLJd again at speed the wrong side of the pedestrian island on Barnsbury Road turning right into Copenhagen Street while I was waiting at those lights. For all the furious riding and twattery he hadn’t got anywhere faster than me. Nice one, dickhead.
