Yesterday while heading in to town along the A4 some prat in a white people carrier started honking and shouting at me from behind. As far as I could tell I wasn't doing anything wrong. Perhaps he just didn't like my not-in-the-gutter road position. At first I ignored him but when the abuse went, on even as he sped past me and across another lane of traffic, I caught up with him at the next lights and asked him what the f*ck his problem was. His reply in broken English:
"What the hell you think you doing? You shouldn't be cycling. It very dangerous. You should be in a car. There are crazy f*cking drivers our there etc etc". And with that he revved, tore off nearly mowing me down and away before I had a chance to pull my phone out.
Can't believe this d*ckwad actually has a license to drive. I rarely get angry on the roads but my blood was boiling.
One of those occasions I wished DJ was there.
