Thoughtful non-cyclist of the day
Today this cyclist was in my car because it was suitable for the journey
in hand - another errand today was suitable for the bike. I was in a stop start queue when a non-cylist in a panzer suddenly barged out of a driveway causing a woman with a pushchair to take a step back and then blocked the pavement. Luckily it wasn't an elderly pedestrian that could have fallen backwards - like my mother-in-law a few years ago. (Oh, hang on, it is supposed to be impossible for licenced, registered, taxed and insured non-cyclists to do this. But if it turns out to be not impossible, being licenced, registered, taxed and insured somehow makes it alright.) Anyway, rather than opening a gap to let the non-cyclist out, as usual courtesy in a queue, this cyclist moved forward with the queue to block her way. I felt no need to use my horn to scream at the non-cyclist, because the ears of the woman and child were not protected by layers of German steel andinsulation. Said non-cyclist then reversed back to let the woman past. It's always good to upset a non-cyclist without consuming any of my own time over it. |
