I don't get it. Overtaking another cyclist isn't really that annoying/difficult is it?
Also am I suddenly the only person who habitually jumps red lights? Are you all so law abiding?
(Caveat; pretty much only do this when I know the junction well).
I've been cycling in London for over 20 years and have never been knocked off at a junction (is a roundabout a junction)?
Also falling in line behind a bunch of wobbly commuters queuing at the red is not going to happen - I'm that guy you curse at as I overtake the nodder peleton in the middle of the road and zip up the Old Kent R.
