Was hovering between the spotted thread and this one but decided probably best here. I spotted a dude this afternoon at about 2:30 on a green single speed, crossing the marylebone/euston road and then going up marylebone high street, cycling through red lights and across traffic, holding the telescopic handle of a really big, heavy looking suitcase in his left hand, wheeling it alongside him like a sidecar. Part of me respected his strength, balance, no-fear attitude and the fact that he hadn't just taken the bus, but then I thought every car driver who had to avoid this twerp is probably going to be that little bit more aggressive/hateful to the rest of us as a result.
If you are on here and it was you, shame on you for being so dangerous! (but secret applause to you for at least being dangerous in a really cool way, unlike most white van/minicab etc drivers)
