So, I went for a ride east today, and on my way back, near Greenwich, I approach a junction and stop at the red light. Light turns green, and as I am setting off, I notice a car coming from the right had jumped his light a bit so I waited. Big deal.
All of a sudden I hear a loud growling "EEEEEHHHHHH" from my rear, right by my ear, scared the shit out of me. Cyclist is directing this rage directly at the motorist.
I was annoyed but decided I wouldn't confront said cyclist about the extremities of his/her reaction. (I am not certain of the gender of this cyclist so I'm going to use "it" for the rest of this write up)
A minute later I just about caught up with it and then a light turns red. Cyclist jumps red light in front of a ped. So now I think to myself, "you are a cunt, and I am going to tell you so". I caught him a minute later and he is now screaming at motorists in a traffic jam. "EEEEEHHHHH", "MOOOOVE OVER", "AAAAARRRGGGGHHH". At this point I am pissed off so I shouted something in the lines of "shut the fuck up". Cyclist ignores me and continues bellowing at everyone. I pass him and tell it to stop being a cunt to everyone. He continues to ignore me and carried on abusing everyone.
Anyone encountered this person before?
