F%&*&$g CYCLISTS!!! ARRGGGHHH!!!
 
walking my girlfried to the bus stop at 7:20am, we have to walk up this alleyway and out onto Lickey Road where the bus stop is. so we are chatting, laughing, as you do, we reach the end of the alleyway and this W4&*ER of a cyclist who was riding on the footpath at a stupid speed just plowed right into me and my girlfriend :smt013, i shouted at him rather loudly and he just got on his bike and rushed off, i tried to chase after him but im not as fit as i used to be.

got to say that if i do see him while im on my bike and he is up my inside while im indicating, i might have to smidsy him to see how he likes something bigger and heavier plowing into him first thing in the morning.


anyone else have this problem??

he's a middle aged bald guy on a black bicycle, anyone see him around Lickey Road/Bristol Road South area, let me know. :smt092

Sounds like you need to watch where you're walking...;)

im confused on alot of levels with the quote haha, but my real argument is, what is it with, most likely, the minority of cyclists who decide its their RIGHT to ride on pavements, then in road, to go through red lights, to hit people and not even stop to say sorry or ask if your alrite, to flie through pedestrian crossings weaving through people and then moan that it is dangerous on the roads for them.

Like the minority of motorcyclists who decide it's their right to cross double whites, then ride on the wrong side round corners, to push their way to the front of traffic lights, clip wing mirrors and not even stop to say sorry or fix the damage, to speed through villages weaving in and out of traffic and then moan how dangerous it is to be on the road for them?;)

You get ******s in all modes of transport, just be thankful the one you met today was on a push bike and not driving an artic

I would say it was my hubby Drew? But he isn't middle aged or bald, and it's also the wrong side of Birmingham for him cycling in! ;)

I hop on and off the pavements when I have cycled into Brum! Have you seen how some of the nutters drive!

Waking the neighbours at with laughter at 7:20am? Very antisocial ;-)

I'm with TLW - bad eggs in all transport modes. Maybe he's learnt a lesson.

I assume you are injured? You have told the police about the cyclist not stopping at the scene of an accident? ;)

so...
go out to the bus stop again on Monday, go 5mins earlier and with a broom. See if he's on the path again when he comes past at 7.20 no doubt. If he is then introduce mr broom to mr spokes then politly ask him while he's laid on the floor if he'll be riding on the pavement on Tuesday still.
Then if he's a big feller run like feck, cos I suspect he'll be annoyed.
