Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
A 'working lunch' with our new Chief Information Officer (which makes him sound like a spy). 10 minutes discussing work, then the next 2 hours chatting about biking matters. He currently owns an 1198s and at 6'4" I cannot see how that is comfortable.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Seeing a rather pompous biker almost learning a very painful lesson! Using your narrowness to pass a car waiting to turn right is one of the joys of biking but when it's a staggered junction and you don't look ahead to see the car already emerging from your left... This guy was ignoring the speed limit (built up area), overtaking on the white line forcing oncoming cars to swerve towards the curb and jinking left at the last second so the emerging car could not see him until they were well out into the road. He only just avoided slamming into them and hopefully had to change his undies as a consequence.
Before anyone says anything the car driver did nothing wrong here - the traffic was stopped to their right and the bike was not visible so they set off on their own left turn. I've been in the same situation and had an irate speeding biker shout at me after I moved out onto an empty road only to have this moron scream round a blind bend thirty yards or more away with knee almost on the deck. Cars don't have radar that allows them to see what's coming round a corner or through a van waiting to turn right so if you can't see them they can't see you (and sometimes when they should have seen you they don't!) A bit like the cycling deaths thread there is no point being pompous if it kills you. Hopefully this guy learned a lesson.
