• Cunty Black cab driver.

    Warwick Road I'm in the outer lane he decides he wants to be there so puts on indicator pulls over causing me to skid stop (yay) he rolls down the window and this exchange begins
    BC "I SAW YA!"
    CB "Then why did you change lanes"
    BC "shhhhaaddap"
    CB "You muggy cunt"

    He pulls across me and starts to undo his belt (ooer) I get off the bike and ask him in no uncertain terms to please continue to get out of your vehicle and I will glady have fisticuffs with you...I'd like to say he thought twice because I look a right double hard bastard but I doubt my silly hat and pasty legs had anything to do with and was probably the two old grumblies in the back scared shitless.

  • Muggy Cunt. nice

  • What about them?

    The little cycle stickers on the back of the van, like a record of the bikes they've taken out.

  • Audi dickheads

    This morning

    FR62 BTY
    Black A3
    Young male, speeding and aggressive driving, nearly took out a ped crossing the road. Poplar High St.

  • Yesterday evening - cunt in a white merc decides to stick himself behind me in a box junction in Holborn. Guy starts beeping continuously, gesticulating wildly as if I have room to move forward - there's a bus directly in front, as well as another cyclist and a motorbike side by side, and a car wedged in on the left hand side trying to get out of the bus lane. Bloke continues bipping impatiently, by this point I'm getting a mite annoyed so give him the finger.

    Then, as the lights go green for the cars on the other side of the junction, he just starts edging directly into me, pushing me sideways. Even after banging on his bonnet, he just kept creeping forward, pushing into my leg and chainset. Had to jump awkwardly sideways and lean against the car to my left to get clear.

    At this point, traffic starts to move, and he clearly isn't going to pull over and exchange details as he's already tailgating the cars in front. Couldn't get the number plate due to the amount of traffic, but, unfortunately, I think his wing mirror may have been damaged in the incident.

  • ^Wtf, I would have ripped his wing mirror off and smashed his face in for that.

  • Then, as the lights go green for the cars on the other side of the junction, he just starts edging directly into me, pushing me sideways.

    I would have resorted to criminal damage at that point.

  • ^^^ Wow what a knob. I don't blame you for the unfortunate wing mirror damage.

    I am imagining myself in your situation. I think I'd shout a lot. I would then fantasise about pulling out my multitool or pump and creating a crater in his bonnet, but I don't think I'd be handy enough in a fist fight to deal with the consequences.

  • ^Oops, I didn't read that last line. Top man!

  • I think you all misunderstand. The wing mirror must have become damaged in a totally unrelated incident.

    I like the idea of hurling my shitty commuter bike through his windscreen.

    I did this last year, BMW driver knocked me off my bike in a bus lane, got out and punched me, got back in and drove at me - I threw my bike at his car hopine he would swerve out of the way, but he didn't. My bike bounced off his car and then he still drove at me, ran over my foot and broke my toes...

    He got 8 months in prison though. And my bike wasn't damaged. Win all round, except for my toes!!!

  • Jeeeebus!

  • I heard a story about Ryan at Oak Cycles going ape at a guy in a fancy car in Soho, jumpin' up on the bonnet and waving his bike around. Always hoped it was true.

  • ...
    I will report this to roadsafe, though I suspect there's no point...

    Sadly I share your viewpoint. I've reported numerous idiots but doubt anything will come of it...oh well.

    Their facebook account have been deleted.

    I'm now tweeting the photos saying they've killed seven people so far according to that van.

    This is one of the advantages of polo, you can leave your bike somewhere safe while you twat the car with a mallet...

    Er... Allegedly... ;)

  • Imperial Cleaning Company:

    Has anyone phone the company to ask what the stickers are about ?

    I will glady if you like ? (bored at work)

    message on home page re the stickers;

  • Good move, still a silly thing to do.

  • Silly doesn't quite capture it. Moronic?

  • ^ this

    Nice to hear of a progressive sounding response from stagecoach on this one. I wonder if it's because of all the country cambridge is one of the few places where publically pissing off cyclists can seriously reduce your revenues?

    I got a similar response from Arriva in Kent. Driver cautioned, sent back to driving school and subject to plain clothes checks. Was impressed they took it seriously!

  • Silly doesn't quite capture it. Moronic?

    "Imperial Cleaning Has now removed the bicycle stickers from one of its vans. We would like to apologize for any distress caused."

    Another sincere apology.

    I have always been told it was a different Ryan. A Canadian Ryan, Ryan at Oak is American, isn't he?
