Absolute fucktard nodder this evening. I was hurtling along a clear road, twat riding on pavement on other side of the road decides to cut through stationary traffic and then pull out into my path. I had been going at a fair speed, had clocked him and started scrubbing speed.
He pulls out in front of me and I just bumped into him as I did an emergency stop.
"do you not think to look when you pull out like that?"
"but i did look, i did not see you"
"fuck off, you are either a total fucking idiot or a lying cunt, I have over a 1000 lumens of light, how could you miss me, use your fucking eyes and your frigging brain, you vacuous cunt!"
FFS an exposure joystick mounted on my head, and a diablo on the handlebars. Its not like there was 14.5 stone of 20mph lighthouse bearing down on him.
Just before I had left look mum no friends I had been chatting with chainbreaker about the ridiculous lights I use to avoid people being able to say "sorry mate i did not see you!"
