Last night, riding along Victoria Park Road, I made the mistake of taking the cycle lane on the left...
It was at this point the C--k in his BMW straight outta Max Power (he was late 30s, early 40s - grow up!)
He decided, he could cut the corner instead of keeping in lane, and cuts me up?
I then make the error of shouting "Mirrors"....... He slams on, window down, who the Fck do you think
you are, fck off, don't go down the left blah, blah..." Now, I always try ride down the right, but then I
was in the cycle lane? So, for the next 500 yards this repeats until he puts his foot down and off he goes?
Now, I agree the left is to be avoided, but he should have used his mirror, I had every right in the cycle
lane to be there, It's idiots like him, not driving with care, then being a total C--k accelerating and braking
that cause accidents!!!
