Clarkson-isms

[Louwai]

Clarkson's highway code on cyclists: "Trespassers in the motorcars domain, they do not pay road tax and therefore have no right to be on the road, some of them even believe they are going fast enough to not be an obstruction. Run them down to prove them wrong."

I've always liked that one.

Yep. Sometimes the cyclists REALLY piss me off.
I recall reading a comment in a cyclist publication.
It said "Remember, it's not the cyclists that hold up the traffic, it's the idiots in cars that can't drive".

Somehow that just doesn't ring true to me. The cyclists not holding up the traffic part. The idiot drivers part is true enough.

So often I see near my place, groups of cyclists riding 3 abreast, taking up the entire lane & the traffic building behind them waiting to merge into the other lane to get around the cyclists.

If that's not "Cyclists holding up traffic" what the hell is??????


THEN, at another time,
I've been riding my bycicle with the family along the cycling track & have been abused by "cyclists" for going to slow & holding them up.

Amazing how some people expect everything to be just perfect for them & stuff everyone else.....
