Riding up Branden Road/Blundell Street towards Caledonian Road yesterday evening around 5. Not going particularly fast but faster than the two cyclists chatting side-by-side taking up the left lane. Not really a problem as traffic was light down there so I overtake whilst maintaining my speed. One rider, Maroon football socks (looked like Burnley colours), ankle swingers/trousers rolled up, hipster circle rim glasses, dark colour singlespeed/fixie seems to take offence to this and puts his foot down. Overtakes me making strange low volume "woop" noises, does two or three short skids in the wet in front of me and slows to stop at the junction, not indicating and to the left of the lane, think you went right in the end but seems you had to wait for your mate to catch up before you braved Caledonian Road. What was that all about?
