Phsycho Ped on FF loop near Sainsburys

Just a warning to other folks that use the loop in that area. Thursday morning about 8:30am a guy tried to shove me off my bike whilst riding in the cycle lane as he thought I'd shouted at some student girls to get out of the cycle lane.

The guy in front of me (brown langster with flat bars with bar ends) had said something but it was hardly like he shouted - more asked them to stay on their side - but this nutter thought it was me and decided trying to shove me off my bike with both hands against my shoulder and yelling 'Fucking cunt!' as I rode through the bollards a suitable punishment. I managed to keep it rubber side up and the following altercation to a fairly unpleasant verbal exchange rather than kicking the crap out of him - he didn't know what to say when I told him it was the guy in front of me who'd opened his mouth not me.

He clearly has issues with bikes and feels the need to defend the honour of student girls. Nut job: About 5'8'', black or mixed race with greying curly hair. Not sure of age but certainly over 30. Dressed like he was off to some sad menial job somewhere.

Sorry for the obvious question but, have you reported this to the police?

????!

I feel your frustration about the altercation, but not sure what this adds to the story?

I'll admit that was a bit of a judgmental call on my part, especially as I was off to my sad little income making post. That said I feel somewhat entitled to make judgement on the sad git.

It was more that there was nothing distinctive about it in the slightest. One of those people who just did not stand out in any way. I guess that's as much of a style as a hoodie, football top or head to toe rapha.

A little more polo practice and you could've checked him over instead.

I checked him over, but he wasn't very cute so I didn't try and kiss him.

hate them sorts.
