I had the joy of cycling home last night along Dunbursy st in Islington by the canal with some boy racer constantly revving behind me. Its usually a fairly quiet road that I can hammer it along with out much bother. This guy wouldn't let up, he would race to over take then every time I'd hit a speed bump I'd gain distance on him.
That was until a got stuck behind a taxi at a bottleneck on the road, it turned right leavin gme in open space and sure enough this guy was up my arse- he forced me to the side of the road through several pot holes. Looking round to find he was less than 2ft from my back wheel. Stupidly I gave him some hand gestures at which point he tried to physically force me off the road with his car. Luckily I managed to get my speed up and took quick left out of there- I'm annoyed I didn't catch his plate but I'm sure it was a dark blue golf with body trims and black/grey alloys.
Sorry rant over
