    agreed, but he's a tw@t, so he wouldn't.

    I find a curt 'thanks' works well.

    I got a 'Im sorry Im a bad driver' from the person who cut me up on Camberwell Grove.

    If people are going to RLJ, I believe that they should still give way to the cyclist with the right of way.. Im against RLJing but think if people are going to do it they need to be considerate to other cyclists as a minimum requirement!

    If the 'thanks' doesn't work a 'thanks - you tw@t' can then be added!

    I think we should hunt them with tridents - it's like fox hunting without soap dodgers bleating about animal rights.
    Fixed gear for wet weather / hairy roadie for posing in the sun.

    What would Thora Hurd do?

    Agreed, in principle. However, this would only result in more craters along the NKR and Putney Bridge.

    Depends... do you mean tridents or tridents?

    I meant Trident in terms of three pronged spears - not nuclear weapons.

    However - we could meet in the middle - what about anti-aircraft artillery?

    Tridents, with tridents strapped to them

    Or, dare I say it, like a nuclear trident? A TRIdent having 3 prongs as opposed to the bayonet's singular stabby bit. :D

    I was tootling home last night - waiting at the lights to cross Edgeware Road. Watchign the lights for the other direction so that I am ready to roll as soon as mine start to go.

    Edgeware roads lights go to amber, I stand on pedals in trak stand, lgiths go red, mine go green I start to pedal - Suzuki 4wd thing lauches off the line on edgeware road to get across, well after lights have turned, by this point I am in middle of his lane - I shout Oi! loudly at him as he has a window open and apparently cant see me so I fgure maybe he can hear me - he swerves rather than brakes and aims to go behind me causing the cyclist behind me to scream and jump of her bike, he manages to go round her, narrowly missing the car behind that hasn't yet pulled away and roars off down the street.

    I and the lady cyclist were frankly so amazed and horrified neither of us managed to get out any sort of appropriate swear words at all!

    People, sheesh. No wonder there is a proliferation of nuclear arms.

    This trident thingy? Do we get nets as well? A bit like Gladiator bloke, that would be good; as they sped through the junction the net would ensnare them and lay them low to be stabbed by the trident.

    Perhaps I should suggest this to Mayor Johnson. He should like the classical allusion.

    (No Tw@ts would be harmed in the performance of this excercise, honest)

    Heehee! I can really see Boris saying 'Oh yes, bloody hell old chap, marvellous idea. Got the full backing of Phil the Greek to go ahead. Good show.'

    I love Boris. :D
