Bit of a brown trouser moment this morning...
Heading down north bridge in edinburgh, to the bottom, lights green...good-o.
To the right, then left down leith street....and I spot....
A man wavering around on the pavement looking to cross on the red man...
OK i thinks...slow down and make bell ringing noises...pingping-pingping.
nope. he looks at me...decides "itll be fine" and steps out into the road!
I shout lookout! He stops in his tracks... a little more brakes and I go for the inside line...
backpack to backpack thunk...
pheeeeeeeeeew...couldv'e been nasty...
Just glad I saw him in time...if I hadn't, well...who knows.

Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I believe in the future of the human race.
