on the way to work this morning on my normal route 10 miles, riding up to some traffic lights which are red, every car at all the lights has stopped as they are just about to go green so carry on riding passed all the cars and through the lights, about 200 yards up the road some bloke in a mini clubman comes along side me leaning across his mrs shouting abuse out of the window, i mean this is more dangerous than what i just done

I was that bloke in the Clubman and I was just shouting how much I liked your fixie but that pink wasn't your colour.....that's all.'Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible' Marcel Proust.0 -
So you willfully commited a criminal offence and don't like it when it's pointed out to you, I guess you'd be cool and not say a word while I beat the crap out of you then?
I was behind passout in his Clubman, was ready to shout as well but he did such a good job I didn't bother.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
Ffs you should know better, only run a red light while there is high speed traffic crossing from the left. I :rolleyes:I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.0

You commited one of the most heinous cycling crimes known to mankind. You might as well have stuck your bare arse through his open window and asked his wife to lick your glowing red anus.
Seriously, thats how bad it was.
As every good motorist knows, you only jump red lights when they've just changed to red, parping the car through with your foot on the floor so you're doing fifty by the time you clear the junction is perfectly acceptable.0
