I wasn't really drunk, I added that for colour, otherwise it's quite boring. I was sober and tired. And I had been at the BFI cafe and was riding home. Trackstanding at the drop kerb, I see him approaching, signalling left to turn onto the path. I put my foot down, move the bike forward, and say it's not for you. The cyclists waiting next to me were confused. Biker swears and keeps on riding.
I was surprised by how well it went; last time I tried to play drunk chicken with one as a pedestrian outside the roebuck he just kept coming and I felt too vulnerable to hold my ground.
