For some of us, the junction by Stockwell tube is often a way to get from Stockwell Road to Binfield Road and vice versa. To the majority of cyclists using that junction, unfortunately, the existence of Binfield road is a mystery that escapes their obsession with incompetent commuter racing. So, during the brief period where the lights only allow cyclists to cross the A3, not wobble along it, there's always one cunt trying to get in your way. Most often it's some MAMIL who can't slow down from his 15mph top speed in case he falls off, sometimes a nodder setting off early on the right turn from Stockwell Road in the hope of crossing the junction before the next Game of Thrones book comes out.
It's particularly annoying if somebody does this to you in the rain and the dark. So, Mr. Asshat in the white Bern helmet with the velcro ginger beard on the primary colours plastic single speed with no lights, may your beard snag on your helmet strap and choke you. I know you fucking saw me coming, because when you spotted me you didn't slow or stop, you just stared at me, wide eyed, and put on a burst of speed to make absolutely sure you would block my path. It can't be much fun being Keith Lemon's uglier brother, but you don't have to spread more misery into the world.
