Calling out ME as a 'bad' cyclist. Pouring with rain this morning riding along in the designated lane to turn left at the next junction. Person on a moped goes past 'beeping' and shouting at me for being in the wrong lane. Apparently according to them I have to be in the right hand lane even though I am about to turn left. Of course after 'beeping' me they have to stop at the traffic light immediately ahead.
So I time it so that just as the light changes I am level with them and I start encroaching on their road space, not letting them get ahead, daring them to hit me and effectively forcing them out of the lane into the next.
Its not smart and its not clever and I should know better. Bad Buddha.
