me There was an angry rosser at the north end of Neal st policing the one way system. He lost his temper with my cheek... as I rode off I told him he was an utter disgrace to the force, I could smell the rage brewing... the next person probably received the fury.
So... it's YOUR fault then was it!?!? ;) I've just ranted about that in the bbc 1 program thread!

One thing that does really fuck me off though is those yellow vested commuters going straight through a pelican crossing whilst you're on foot. Gonna push the next fucker off who does that.
That is why there are complaint about cyclist running red light e.t.c and why the police do these "stings". It' the fuckers who can't ride just zooming through all light without giving way to people who have right of way and nearly knocking old granny Smith over.
[/quote]Yeah I agree. I don't mind people zooming through when they're far away from you, fair play. But being close enough to grab is a bit dumb.
Trouble is it's probably not those people who are going to get fined.

flickwg we should just ignore them and cycle off, i think it would be fun, imagine a policeman running after you, the ones on bikes are too slow as well
if we all do it it will become harder to fine us - bad theory i know
Would love that! Did think about it this morning but my mate convinced me it would be a bad idea

nv55 I got stopped going the wrong way up a one-way street, and said "But I'm on a bike, I'm allowed to". I believed it too. Copper seemed less sure after that and let me off. I was wrong though.
I think a campaign to make most/all one-ways two way for cyclists would be excellent. There's a few of these on my back-street ride to work, they make perfect sense - why should cycles be forced to go round the houses to accomodate the congestion caused by motor vehicles?
One way streets suck anyway, look at how much better the Shoreditch 'triangle' is for cycles and peds now its two way. People used to drive at 60mph round there regularly, like they still do on East Road (bottom of New North Road) that place is a pedestrian death zone, regularly. No proper crossings, two or three lanes of twats in porches trying to get from Islington to the city. Fast.
We gotta get pedestrians get our side people. No Pelican Jumping should be de rigeur (unless there's a ghost that pressed the button I guess).

i'm not really in favour of moral equivalence... but
i got assaulted by a group of lads in a school playground whilst teaching, they'd come in off the street and i'd asked them to leave. the police made portentious sounds about how 'it was a very serious matter' and it was really 'important that this kind of thing didn't happen' and also mentioned the stabbing of Phillip Lawrence, etc. i spent three hours leaving a statement in marylebone police station, they said they were going to pursue it actively.
18 months later i haven't heard a FUCKING WORD. not a thing.
two weeks ago a copper and spastic in a CSO outfit stops me for STANDING over my bike on a pavement, not riding it, i'd pulled off theobald's road to answer my phone. he threatens me with a £100 fine, a criminal record, and is generally a rude moron with no brain, just a small sub-section of brain matter that tells him over and over 'you have got a brain, jeff, and you are a force for good'.
Being a bit of an empiricist lately, i have only this to say, they can go FUCK THEMSELVES.

ed:
"couldn't have got away with the name though they ask you for ID. copper said if not he'll have to arrest me".I know it sounds drastic but keep any photo id out your wallet and use your bank card as ID. Give the false address and presto, it'll never get back to you. Used this a few times and it's all good. Be extra polite and let the dozy cunts think they've just ruined your day while you've got your feet up in the boozer having a beer on the £30 you've saved yourself.
Also take his number down (in silver on his shoulders) and make an annomymous complaint (over your pint) that you saw this guy assulting someone, groping some young girl etc etc near where he nabbed you at that time and that you're too afraid to come forward. If they get three of thesse complaints (forgotten the complaint code) then they get it in the ass in a big way. Ruin his day and hopefuly his career and maybe... just maybe... his life -
i got done ages ago going through 3 red lights in a row on oxford st, even though i followed through the 2 cops on bikes through the first one. both were exactly like ed, give us id otherwise we'll take you to the station and charge you. took it on the chin. just avoid the main spots of oxford st and covent garden ans you're fine. who wants to cycle there anyway.

So are we all in agreement that pigs are all useless, lazy, good for fuck all, thick robbing cunts that probably got bullied at school and this is there payback? I'm being serious when I say I'd rather work in McDonalds than be a rozzer
God I hate them more than plastic Liverpool fans! -

Reminds me of when I saw a guy getting beaten up on Grays Inn road in the summer 6pm. Lotts of witness. I gave my details. Nowt come of it.

last time i was stopped for jumping a red (actually the only time). I was chased around the block a couple of times by a van with full sirens on (long story) fined and then searched, they radioed in my name and had my address before even asking me.

Brixton cops hey, all complete fuckin tonsils! I got pulled in the summer for cycling on the pavement up Brixton Hill, no-one around - just on there instead of risking my life with the planks driving buses. It was one of those BMW cop cars, four of them in it with full body armour, two in the back had rifles! Obviously weren't in the gear for me but still made me think 'cunt's! I laughed at them and asked if they were serious.....he looked at me as if he'd just caught me raping his daughter. I just shook my head gave him a 'you cunt' look and got back on the road. While only 200yrds away there's endless amounts of knife carrying drug dealers and crackwhores going about their business in full view.......

last summer i did the gruesome twosome alley cat and broke reds in front of some old bill and asked them for a ticket as it was part of the race.
they refused and said it was 'at their disgression'.
just before christmas i got stopped going through lights in the city by a van with 5 pigs in it.
there was a a bit of a lights and sirens chase cos i didnt think they were after me. when they pulled up beside me two of them had guns drawn.
the only I.D. i had was my bankcard and my mobile so they cuffed me and told me unless i could verify my identity i'd be spending the night in a cell.
they then rang my house mate and he laughed at them thinking they were some randoms taking the piss. they explained the SERIOUSNESS of the situation and he told them i was OK. haha
i then go my ticket for 30 quid.AT THEIR DISGRESSION

I jumped a light on Holborn, got pulled by a stunning police woman who offered me a £30 fine or a "class in road safety". I took the class, which was at a city police station and was chocka with couriers. The "lesson" was a sham, with some cycling twat telling us to ride in teh middle of the road and showing us a video of him riding (appallingly).
Also at the same session was two bloke who had jumped lights in cars, one of whom had jumped three red lights!
For what its worth jumping lights is illegal, I got caught and said fair cop..
