Bloody Cyclists

[Martin Scroatman]

Nothing, unless the train is busy with commuters, bikes take a lot of space.

Yes, but if people are decent enough to get out of my way it means I can slip my wheel into the rack in the inter carriage area and remain seated on the saddle of my bici for the duration of the journey thus taking up less space.

When people WON'T clear a thoroughfare the space requirement is of a larger order since both myself AND my bici need enough real estate to accommodate us.

It's their loss really.

So when these malicious cyclists come hurtling towards you with their blazing lights blinding you, how often do you lose control and plough into them or crash into a hedge?

It's not a real issue, a cyclist on a dark country road needs to be more visible than normal.

I (and others) have gone onto the bank. Last few times I have stopped.


It may not be an issue for you, but it is for car drivers. Try it some time - shine a CREE headlight into your eye for a few seconds and see how quickly your eye recovers. Imagine that when you are travelling on a road - on a bike, a motorbike or a car.


If you have no sense of responsibility, then continue on your merry way, just don't expect any respect from others if you can't show them any.
