To the idiot who undertook me as a bunch of cyclists were pulling away from the lights at the bottom of Putney Bridge this morning and who then pulled out to overtake another cyclist (the one I'd slowed down for) when there was barely a cycle lenght between - us you are a twat.
To say you were nowhere near me is incorrect as you did not once look round to see where I was nor do you have much in the way of spatial awareness.
If you want to save time on your commute then I suggest pedalling harder. Why you did not try to moderate the speed you had gained going downhill when approaching a junction filled with cyclists who had just pulled away from the lights is beyond me. Perhaps it's because you were feeling a little bit tired this morning because after about 20m of the junction I, and a fair few of the other cyclists waiting at the lights had left you standing.
