• sure i appreciate that but if all other traffic has stopped and a car is trying to make the turn why is it that you see a procession of cyclists just steaming on through. its not compunction surely its just following what others are doing in a shared road space. only reason im bringing this up was a taxi ride across london last night. the amount of shoddy riding was unbelievable. no awareness, no ability, no forward thinking, no concept of others.

    Ah right yeah I know what you mean now, it's annoying for cyclists who stop too as it just holds everyone up even longer.
    I was thinking mainly of a taxi last week who beeped me loads for carrying on and not stopping when he was indicating right/across my path.

    whats the general consensus on using earphones whilst cycling? Personally i can not do it. Feels dangerous. Although the guys i cycle with can not ride without them.

    Haha good one.
