• photoben Some ss who slipstreamed me the length of the isle of dogs this morning. I was not best pleased. And called me an arsehole when I spat out a build up of plehm. If you are reading this - if I wanted to hit you I would have gobbed over my head and you would have had a faceful.

    Slipstreamers - if you can keep up with me (not hard), why not cycle alongside me and we can chat about how great bikes are.

    I don't really have a problem with giving people a wheel, or latching on to theirs. And I love a bit of bit-and-bit/through-and-off. As long as it's all done with due care, attention, and anticipatory prowess, I'm all for it. Sometimes riding two abreast is awkward or provocative, and sometimes I don't really feel like chatting bike shit with relative strangers.

    So clearly we already have a spectrum of opinion forming...
