Yes I know EXACTLY what you mean. That roundabout is the main one where people haven't got a clue about which lane to get in and I also get a little road rage at that particular spot he he

I have anger issues, I am trying to be a bit nicer to people, but I would have inserted it into him a few months back.

The magic roundabout is ok, I try and beat people by going round the other way sometimes.. I quite enjoy a few of the roads around there, my girlfriend lives in faringdon and my uncle and aunt in brinkworth so I'm down there a fair bit.

Yeah, unfortunately. I know where they all are though. Tis quite a nice road sometimes
There's a double whites bit in some trees on the oxford half of it, which is fun when it's empty, but mainly its just a bit dull.

Yep I enjoy the brinkworth road. I need to do a bit more exploring down that area though, and above swindon too.

I went north through south marston going to a party one time () and that's definitely a small bit of road to avoid. Chicanes and all sorts for "traffic calming".
