Spotted...

Dude this morning with feline-grade reflexes on a maroon Pompino, Old Street. Ped steps out in front of lorry, freaks out, darts across the road and into path of Pompino rider who somehow manages to swerve around this insane c*nt and not stack it. Same dude then almost gets taken out by a lorry (WAMFC) squeezing past a traffic island about twenty seconds later. I hope you made it to wherever you were heading alive, dude! Too many 'whoa' moments. Also spotted the lovely yellow Fort track behind him.

Hi, that was me on the Pompino. I made it the rest of the way to Bloomsbury with no further drama - cheers. The pedestrian looked to be recreating 'Frogger' on Old Street with herself in the part of the frog. Absolutely nuts. Possibly my manly / terrified-for-my-life scream I let out convinced her not to take next step out in front of me.

Didn't particularly need the close pass by the lorry afterwards - he pulled into the left lane at Old St x Central St because a car was waiting to turn right, like you can see the taxi doing in this Google streetview image. Very poor behaviour.

Following this another fixed rider, I think the guy on the yellow Fort, caught up with me and said "Good scream" which was appreciated. :)
