My favourite mirror moment was getting into a race on Camberwell New Road. Some lycra'd fool with a Camelback couldn't cope with being overtaken by a guy on a touring bike with double panniers and kept trying to overtake. I kept drawing him through bottlenecks to piss him off and getting up to Camberwell Green I had to duck a white van mirror that I scraped lightly with my helmet. The next thing I heard was a crack and a bang because the other guy had hung up on his Camelback and bounced onto the pavement.
Nearly hit a moped because I was laughing so much.
On the few occasions I've bumped cars I've stopped to apologise. Except the car full of wideboys who came close while overtaking and one of them slapped my shoulder. I pulled up next to it and dropped the bar end of my MTB into the front door before riding off.
