| | I took a short-cut, riding through a local church on Sunday morning. Fucking priest gave me a filthy look as I skidded past the altar. I shouted, "Jesus Christ, way to make a man feel persecuted," right into his sanctimonious face, and then deliberately crashed into his pulpit and said, "here endeth the road safety lesson, you stupid fucking holy ped twat." People seem to have lost all sense out there. |

| | so today i had the chance to knock some pedestrians off once again. green light, peds crossing, cyclist coming, they ignore it, i chose a target and you know where this is going. but according to other forum members, as i'm the wrongful mentally ill american tool, i decided to play their game. instead of trying to slalom around them, i slowed down to as much as humanly possible, slower than a circus monkey with a pulled muscle and no tires, and rode into the gap among them. i was so slow that they had obviously to stop and wait -- what in my opinion they should've done in first place. results: lots of funny confused faces, no swearing/insults exchanged, no honking, and most importantly, no risk to anyone. if some stupid ipod watcher had decided to walk without looking, they'd have a large piece of metal to bump on, so i am happy. appropriate? 99.9% not. pleasant? 110%. |

Peds don't include bicycles in their mental concept of "traffic." Loud shouts of "head's up people" works really well for parting the iPod sea. | |

| | back in my day there were always clusters of peds walking around in the road at Farringdon st and that Blackfriars, we used to paint our faces with woad, swing a morning star around and scream a blood-curdling cry of war to strike terror into the hearts of the cowardly and evil. Most of them moved.. |

| | random.... I might have had a point I was trying to make..... hold on..... Aw yep. Was chatting to Arrrgghhosejhshhehwearahrhhafghhhh last night about americaland, and explained the reason I wasn't getting drunk/ staying late was cos of the football. then joemontana posted and it rekindled my memory of american football. and I was going to ask for his shirt. Then I failed to post any of this and posted a rambling story which might have been better left in the wests thread. |

| | borough high st turning right towards tooley st. right arrow turned green so i went. i was with two other cyclists. it was amber at the ped xing. was going to go for it but couldnt cos peds started to fill up the xing. inconsiderate fcks. anyway. green man for peds. cyclist one makes a run for it when he found a gap. cyclist two tried to go through when ped arsehole cried out "green man" then pushes cyclist two. the little lady cyclist gets off and rams her bike onto pushing ped arsehole. last thing i witnessed was a shoving match on the station side of the xing. few people were helping out incl a couple of cyclists at the lights waiting to turn right onto london br. it actually annoys me when cyclists go through a crowded xing like that one, but fck, there is no need get all physical! |
