Fucking Nodders!

What would RPM say I thought.

'Oh, sorry, that was me.'

@oli.
Course I didnt silly.

This is London, my friend. I've seen stranger things.

'Oh, sorry, that was me.'

RPM does indeed do yummy mummy drag better than most.

I thought of you today as a lady on a dutch bike, iphone headphones and a straw boater

I got this far then double checked the front door was locked.

Be Careful out there people. I think there is some kind of nodder championships event taking place somewhere in SE london tonight. They are out in force wobbling to the front of every set of lights.

Everyone's a Dan Martin immitator..

this heat is bringing em out in full force

leave early and you don't see anyone. Was out the house at 6:45 this morning, clear roads all the way to Waterloo. Partly had to because the missus got me the yellow jersey for my birthday, and I don't want to get caught by a bunch of Cat 6 racers.

It should be absolutely compulsory for people who coast, whilst standing up on their pedals, to have to shout "whhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee", thereby sounding like the idiots that they look.

Been undertaken by the same bald twat on a specialized (I think) with blue bar tape in Angel, last night and this morning. Was filtering up the left of traffic at a red yesterday when he undertook me at ridiculous pace just to squish his way to the front of the ASL, past the other fucking nodders.

Then he did exactly the same thing to me this morning as I was coming up to a pedestrian crossing, I was slowing down (as there were pedestrians on it) and he undertook me at pace then bumped up the kerb and rode along the pavement to a shop.

Prick!

Crossroads in Shoreditch this morning crawling with Mickey Mouse coppers catching out RLJumpers, ASL dwelling cars and mopeds, all in all well done to them, would loved to have observed for a bit, bit pissed off that one of them was having a go at me for not being advanced far enough into the ASL (I was turning left and there were two other bikes in front of me going straight ahead), when I was blatantly a good foot past the ASL Junction (triangle of broken lines), honestly, you give a man a bit of power...

My commute takes me through Hyde Park on some days - I have never seen such stupid bike riding in my life as I do on the mixed use paths. A perfect storm of commuter heros and confused, frightened tourists. I had a guy shout at me from behind because he didn't think I was riding fast enough on a 4 foot wide path with oncoming cyclists and pedestrians. I told him squarely to shut the fuck up.

What is wrong with people that they think it's OK to endanger pedestrians lives with reckless (feckless) riding for the sake of squeezing 1 second off their commute. Makes me so angry. Exactly the kind of cunts who push onto the tube without letting people off - go back to public transport.

I hated her at first but I started to warm to her when she slagged off fixiecunts doing trackstands.

7 hipster risers out of a possible 10.

Because society tell them it's okay to ride on the pavement, even if it's against the law.

I blame Sustrans.

I thought she had it pretty well nailed, especially the Boris bikers.

Oh fuck, I broke the "never ever read the comments ever" rule there. Doh.

The Birmingham nodder super highway goes through a park with mixed use paths, some of them are quite narrow. Went through there the other day, slowing right down as there were a number of small kids running about. A nodder train overtakes me, who where then overtaken by an alpha nodder - headphones on, head down, blowing like Ivor the engine, who ended up missing a small child by inches.

I track stand on my road bike, where does that leave me on the cunt scale?

Had a very strange nodd off yesterday with a semi-pro nodder. He raced past me on the right with his momentum through the lights and stuck his hand out to turn left, completely cutting me up and forcing me to brake. It's possible he wasn't expecting me to move in the manner I did. But still, if it is clear your overtaking manoeuvre is about to fail or leave another cyclist in potential danger, then you need to abandon the manoeuvre. Twat

It's twats on flashy bikes assuming that they will always travel at least double the speed of anyone else that causes issue like this^

Generally it's men on bikes that are the problem. Regardless of what they are riding.

Close to the top.

At least you've actually ridden on a track (back in the dim and distant past).

Fuck you!

I was in Brockwell Park with another forumite yesterday, and it was surprising to see so many people, mainly men, doing laps of the park on a shared use path.
