Default So I am a prat and a Richard Edward

According to the cyclist who rode into me on the pavement at 6:45 this morning without lights as I was walking my dog.

He then says there is a fecking road there, I reply "no that where you should be" as I am stepping out of the grass verge where he pushed me". "You ****ing elbowed me, I could have ended up in the road", "No you rode into me and it would not have happened if you were riding where you belong".

"But thats a ****ing road"

His parting comments were something about my name change.

I don't understand why this idiot refuses to ride on the road, it even has a marked section for cyclists, instead he rode straight at me.

To be fair Tim, you are difficult to miss. It would have added a fair distance if he had to ride round you.

Guy was in the wrong. What an Audi RS4 driver (C*ck)

I'm afraid as you pass through life you do cross the path of complete Kn*b heads. Today was your turn.

Well I had a cyclist ride into me and Vixis yesterday morning (clash of elbows kind of thing) that was aparently my fault.

The one that I stepped out in front of as she rode through a "Road Closed" sign (as in between that and the diversion sign) this morning outside my work, declined to answer my enquiries as to whether she could read and whether she considered that instructions on the use of road should be followed...................

What's the problem? I ride the bike along the pavement everyday....I guess it must be the lights, as I always have mine on. Funnily enough cyclists seem to find the road infinately more preferable when I'm on the pavement
