Saw an amusing incident this morning.
Approaching a set of red lights at a junction in the Kennington area, so I started to slow. I noticed there was a cyclist on the pavement on my left, tearing along. I also heard another cyclist approaching from behind who didn't sound to be slowing down. Anyway I stopped at the red light. The pavement cyclist jumped down the kerb onto the road to go across the junction (narrowly missing a couple of peds) just as the cyclist from behind jumped the red light. I don't know how they missed each other, but there was plenty of shouting and swearing from both of them, as they carried on their separate ways. I just sat there and smiled to myself. Not wishing to inflict any injuriues on fellow cyclists, but I thought it would have served them both right if they'd had a bit of a prang.
