• Last Friday (4th) ended up in noddegeddon on way home, folks undercutting, not signalling etc etc, anyway I decide I just take it easy and drop em at a nice clear route. Cross over Pentonville Road going up Penton Street heading towards the Zebra crossing next to TFL cycle hire building/ Taxi place, see a ped waiting to cross so I slow down then stop, then boom not 1,not 2 but 3 nodders clip me,hit and crash into me..one has the cheek to say what you doing? as ped is standing there wide eyed on zebra crossing trying to cross.
    Now not only have they crashed into me they then all cycle off across the zebra crossing with ped still trying to cross without a care in the world.. I turn round rather pissed off and ask 'any other of you f**king nodder muppets want to crash into me for obeying the rules of the road?' Though to be fair the other folks behind me on bikes are just gob smacked at what they've just seen.
    But I've never encountered such idiots on the road, and they wonder why cyclists get a bad rep!

    Ha - that made me laugh but only because of the way you write it, it's not actually funny obviously.

    I had some twat ride into the back of me last night as I stopped at a roundabout as a car was going across it (i.e. had priority). I can't work out if it was the fact the bellend couldn't ride - I'd overtaken him about 100 m before and he was a bit all over the road - his reactions were crap or that his brakes didn't work. Dickhead didn't even have lights on going down a 'country' lane at night.

    Normally if someone rear ends me and they apologise I'm normally OK provided there is no damage but this time he made me really angry and I shouted at him a fair bit.

    Quick edit - I'd forgotten I'd a rear facing camera so just looked at it and 'fair play' to him you do see him look back to see what is behind him then signal right. Unfortunately one hand on the bars mean that he couldn't brake as quickly, although had he been paying attention he would have been fine.
