Cyclists and road laws. Red lights, etc. (merged)

[The Ouzo]

To the cyclist in the lumo green kit on Atlas rd yesterday, you need to stop at the red lights chop.

 

You passed me whilst I was track standing at the first light, I though about giving chase but the next light caught me. I still managed to catch and pass you, but by that time I had decided it was not worth the effort breaking my zen to confront you. You see I had a **** day and riding was the only thing de-stressing me, if I confronted you I would have been all stressed up again.

 

Dude you are one of the many that give us all a bad name.

Why did you back off and engage him to the face,

 

Strange.

Now you send this rant love letter here.

because if you actually read what I wrote you would have seen I did not want to spoil my ride.

every time I've engaged with a fellow cyclist about a transgression I get met with abuse, I was in no mood for that.

ranting with the small hope that the chop reads this forum and changes his ways.

It is after all the Rant and Rave section.

So by how far did he put ears on you?

If he jumps red lights, chances are he doesn't read.I understand your frustration though ... so rant away.!And maybe next time, tackle him.!!

I stopped at all the red lights (and for some reason they were just about all red yesterday) and still managed a PB of 30km/h over 30km,

and he was riding stronger than me. (only reason I caught him was because I rode next to a truck for a short while at around 60km/h)

I hope you were doing that safely and within the rules of the road.
