Please commit to your words and actions. Commit to the fucking turn you were going to make right in front of me, before stamping on the brakes at the last second. Commit to a fight after challenging me on not risking my life around your shitty driving.
Do I “want to fucking go”? You have no idea how much I want to fucking go. I have to cycle around idiots like you all day, if you step out of your armoured wankmobile i am going to sink my teeth into your flesh and not let go. I will bite your flabby fucking tits off. I will beat you with my fists and helmet and entire fucking bike until a kind samaritan pulls over to drag me away from your limp body.
Anyway, if I ever mysteriously stop posting you should be able to dox me by googling “cyclist eats driver UK”.
Mine does 30 mph and I take the “lane” on 25 mph residential streets, I still occasionally have drivers pass me. It doesn’t matter that I’m riding over the speed limit, people see a bicycle and it triggers some primal instinct that they absolutely must get in front of you.
I suspect the only reason no one has challenged me to a duel yet is that I’m a somewhat fit 190 lb man instead of a woman or someone’s grandpa. Still ride with pepper spray just in case someone decides they want to play a game of “Jail or Hospital”.
Am I the only person who just respects cyclists in the lane as if they were any other vehicle? Sometimes car-brains are going 15 in a 40 and I’m not trying to run them off the road, why would I do any different for the unarmored squish-vehicle? 90% of the time they just move into an empty parking line to let cars by, anyway. I cannot fathom the mind of the average driver.
People honk 0.2 seconds after the light turns green when the person in front doesn’t move. You think those types care about you or anyone else? I feel like it’s constantly
