Pulled up at some lights on the inside of a VW Golf, behind a truck signalling left. (I am planning on going left too) Guy in Golf winds down window, so I look over and he asks what the fuck I am looking at.
Something made me take my chewing gum out and throw it at him, at which point four little chavs jumped out and I rode off, took the pavement, then the left, and immediately left into an alleyway. They didn't follow so I went around the block and just as I got back to the alley the Golf appeared heading straight for me and followed me at speed down the alley. I am on a 60 inch ss, pedalling like a loon with a Golf racing up behind me. Fortunately only bikes can go through the bollards so I escape, cross the next road, into a huge park and use alleys and underpasses to get home. Laughing now, but it was very close!
