  • What gives me the dry hump is other cyclists not asserting themselves at the ASL, and queuing in traffic behind the motorcycles.

    Invariably, the motorcycles then drag race from the line, scattering cyclists, pedestrians and pregnant ladies carrying babies and puppies and kittens.

    Cunts.

    Fuck that shit, I am a very assertive rider, and that's how you have to be in London. If you make your presence known and you ride with confidence, asserting your position on the road when necessary and not allowing yourself to be bullied by any vehicle, then the majority of the time you command the respect of the road users around you, obviously there will always be wankers out there no matter what, but by riding like this you safeguard yourself against problems much more so than by riding in the gutter like a meek little puppy waiting to die. If any other vehicle thinks they have more of a right to the ASL then me, I make sure they know that they don't by cutting round them and taking position in front of them, I then like to occasionally reinforce this by only just jumping the red where possible so I get a head start away from the lights, just to remind them that the ASL is there for a reason :)
