Who still rides fixed?

Yeah I was and its possible if she also had one eye and no depth perception. I was not moving fast, there was a headwind and there was a little rise just previously. I literally said to her incredulously 'but I waited for you' as she mouthed off at me.

Must be it, surely? "I'm on the crossing and that so-and-so is still pedaling. Harrumph!"

Weird one this morning. Was cycling past St Marys Redcliffe in Bristol. The road has dual carriageways and there are two lanes. I'm in the left in primary, I am approaching the roundabout at the end and just ahead is a zebra crossing. Now I am pootling along, not giving it gas at all. There is a middle-aged lady on the crossing with a younger woman, possibly daughter. The older lady looks up and starts, and begins to walk faster, pulling the younger one along. I slow even more thinking there was maybe a fast approaching vehicle they saw. They cross in front of me and as they do she shouts at me 'I thought push-bikes are supposed to slow down for a zebra crossing' at me, slowing down. I responded that I was waiting for them, to which she says something dismissive. The younger woman looks embarrassed. I tell the older one she is insane and cycle off.
Honestly talk about a drama in your own head.
