Does anybody else get jeered at/heckled/abused by chavs in s**t cars (that without doubt are uninsured and not taxed and possibly stolen and....sorry im off topic).

Just got in from a ride that involved a lengthy road bit to get back to my house. Im in a cycle lane minding my own buisness when a battered mondeo passes way too close with, what can only be described as a shaved gorilla hanging out the passenger window effin and jeffin at me!

It p****s me off!
I tried to catch him to give him some something to shout about.
He was lucky I couldnt catch him, because the last kid and his pre pubesent mates who did this had to stop at a red light. I caught up and modified his car for him ( a swift gloved fist to the roof panel). He had a large dent in hhis roof to explain to his mummy.

Does anyone else try and fight back against these chavvy idios?
or is it just me?

    I don't fight back because they'd probably batter me! But I know what you mean. Some overtook (in daddy's BMW I think) me way too close right before a pedestrian crossing which was on red. Beeped the horn as they went past too. And then they sat at the crossing revving the engine at the old man shuffling across the road. Scumbags!

    I was very, very tempted to rip the wing mirror off and dash down the side road and onto the canal to make my escape!

    I live in the middle of countryside in a small village.

    I have no concept of these sort of people you're talking about.

    i live in wigan and its a s**t hole and full of these idiots.

    the other one i love is a group of chavs watch me pass, they gawp at my bike with a look that says - thats effin well bling man, but it will take my mum a years worth of giro to afford that, i'll just smash his head in and take it - and then one will shout "thats my bike"

    ...like im gonna look down and go "oh yeah, sorry mate, my misteak here have it...and i stripped and regreased the rear end for you last night coz it was creaking.



    I will always try and get em because i know they will never catch me. as long as you know the area and its rat runs and shortcuts.

    I live opposite a hotel, and they've got 60 "Chavs/Chavettes" staying there whilst their local college is being re-vamped. Stupid fast driving, beeping horns etc..

    Manageress is pissed off wiv em to, and their "miders" spend all night watching telly.
    Rang their college Principal, and he was bloody useless, making excuses but didn't take any action. Said out of his control...Tosser, their HIS students.

    Got the bobbies involved after I went over recently and was gonna batter one of em.
    Was surrounded by a bout 20 of the little rats, but the Law turned up and promised some "action" with regards to speed cameras, patrols etc.

    Not much better, but I'll bide my time...

    I was riding home with a workmate when a chav in a scooby cut my workmate up. Then spent a mile or so brake-checking and calling my mate a c*nt out of the window as he passed him.

    When we got to the traffic lights at the end of the road, he left just enough space for me and my mate to pull either side of him , drop in front and then when the lights went green we rode away at walking pace.

    i dont get many chavs in cars. last week on my way to work i had the often used "your front wheels goin round mate" from a load of cap wearing, web toe window licking englands future. So I stopped and informed him/her it that it wasn't. Kinda confused it for a moment.

    Don't tend to shy away but do have the worry that if i did confront on my bike it would not be mine for that much longer.

    We don't have chav's in Shrewsbury. They are dealt with by roaming death squads. ;)

    Telford on the other hand....... :lol:

    my bro and his mates saw some chavs a fair distance away and the chavs started shouting stuff at them so they shouted back. then my bro's friend pulled his pants down and patted his a$$ at them and they walked off :lol:

    then my bro and his friend were cycling back from the gym and two chavs with a chiuaua(yes thats right) said " wanna fight" my bro said "sure" and again they walked off. just have to stand up to them.

    I get the same on the roads too. It just amuses me when a chav or a chavette pulls up at traffic lights and fancies their chances against me and my Kwaka. Can their 1.1 'suped up' Corsa do 0 - 60 in even 10 seconds let alone under 4? Time for a reality check you wee pr1ck. Get off the road until you learn some sense.

    A work collegue of mine who is a roadie, recently had a bunch of chavstactics pull alongside him in their blinged up Corsa and throw a bl00dy MacDonalds chocolate milkshake at him.......it hit him full on and he narrowly avoided coming off his bike into a ditch beside the road........It does plss me off........................ :evil:




    .........but then I suppose roadies do look a bit funny all lycra`d up.....only joking :lol:

    I quite often get heckled on the commute, I find pointing and laughing both confuses and angers the chav in equal measure.
