haha possibly, but i don't have the same penchant for anger it seems, i just bottle it up....
another fucking incident, same stretch of road at the porsche wanker incident yesterday, cycling 3rd of way across lane (as in, not in the middle, but not right at the left), bus lane to my left full of parked cars, an audi cunt tries to over take me, realises he's a fat fucker and so beeps me quite furiously, pulls out into right lane, slows down and shouts "you're on a bike, get in the fucking bus lane you prick!". he must have been a stupid fuck considering the bus lane was full of parked cars. this kind of shocking misunderstanding of the law (i.e. that a cyclist is under no obligation ever to ride in a bus or cycle lane if there is one [someone correct me if i'm wrong]) is fucking worrying. it can't have been that he didn't see me (well, could have, but i have a big rear light, and a smaller flashing helmet light, and a reflective ankle band, and reflective strip on my rucksack).
he stopped at lights ahead of me and i was tempted to do the old cycle past and knock off wing mirror but thought better of it and went on my merry way.
it seems people are angry that they have spent thousands of pounds on their cars and cyclists are still faster than them.
WAC.
