Was cycling home through hackney, leaving London fields and going along London lane following what was the Q2. Just as I joined London lane I stopped at the junction by the railway arch as a van was turning in. It had to correct the turn not to hit me and it still came a bit close but fine what ever I probably swore under my breath but had my face covered and other than that didn't react and carried on with life. There was also a cyclists behind me don't think they did anything.
As I cleared the junction, the van screeches to a halt and starts to turn around. It then speeds up and starts coming in our direction down London lane towards mare street. Not really sure what was going on the other cyclists suggested to to "get out of here" and we were then chased at speed by the van. Luckily on mare street there are bollards in the middle of the street and the road was clear so I got on the right side of the bollards just in time the van driver shouted something and gave up. Not a fucking clue why that happened, was a bit scary to be honest.
