Last night, riding home along Theobald Road, I was a few feet behind a lass on her bike, we were next to a bendy bus, and a couple of cabs were passing on the right near the lights!
Now, that is a chaotic space at the best of times, but last night, this girl was totally out of controll on her Pashley style ride... Trying to avoid being squeezed by the cab,
I pushed hard to get ahead of it and the bendy bus, this girl is weaving around, suddenly stopping and pretty much falling into my path! I asked what she was doing, and she was
dangerous - she replied that my brakes had scared her? Yes, they do squeal a bit as they are rubbish pads, but I only braked when she fell in front of me? I wasn't been agro
but some people should not be allowed to ride bike without training!!!
