• @ NH - This also happens way too often on my commute, but I now allow for that and will either drop back and let them crawl ahead or speed up to overtake safely, or leave a wider left-hand gap to allow for two lane cycling til I've cleared the bus then safely move back into the left-hand lane.

    It's what I do also, but sometimes the wider left hand gap isn't possible due to impatient overtaking car.

    I'm just having a pointless moan about people who decide that overtaking the bus is their god-given right regardless of the volume or proximity of traffic in next lane.
