Love the consistency of abuse for riding a bike in London, shouted at for stopping at a red light by the cabbie next to me as a few other cyclist sailed through the lights, somehow my stopping angered him more so then if I'd gone through them. Then some halfwit who was stood at the crossing, lights green for me decides to step out when I'm about a bike length away I give a watchout shout he replies with a mouth of abuse. Also big shout out to the oldish coupled with the massive old skool Beemer who for whatever reason decided upon stopping for the lights that there isn't enough time in the world and promptly when through the lights to cause a bit of a jam. Should laugh but I did like there don't give toss attitude.
