Classic c0cktonsil riding...

[HappyMartin]

Sometimes cars hoot at me, sometimes they go real close, sometimes they knock me over. I don't moan about it, it's life. The moaning seems to happen mostly on forums.

 

As for taxis, I don't have trouble with them. They are pretty cool actually. Not nearly as bad as grumpy self important white people

StevieL, give up the fight and just let Robox and his mates ride down the centre of the road, albeit just to the left of the median - my guess is they will be the hood ornament of a taxi sooner rather than later - but at least they were well within their rights whilst becoming said hood ornament!

Wet behind the ears it seems?

Remember your words when somebody in a larger caliber vehicle (multiple tons, eg 2, or 5, or more) bears down on you in your vehicle whilst operating it on the road.

 

Anyways, zaffers seems to have this mentality of "the bigger my vehicle, the more 'rights' I have on the road, and everybody 'lesser' must get out the way and bow down to my eminence".

 

I feel safer riding at least 1m from the left, than hugging the shoulder / far left. Cars give me more space & treat me with greater respect/circumspection riding AWAY from the hard left, than ON the hard left.

 

Anyways... I'm taking my camera on a mountain biking trip this Sunday. Cannot wait to take photos of c0ckt0ns1l MTBers riding dual suspension bikes on gravel roads!

Ride 1.5 from the most left cyclist and let all the others take the knock

The operative word is c0ckt0n1l, not k@kt0ns1l

And things were looking good there for a little while too.
