Waiting for the great leap forward

- The middle bit
Drove to work this morning for the first time in a while on the usual cycle route. The worst bit of my ride is a dual carriageway, at the end the left lane peels off t0 the motorway, the right lane goes round a roundabout to a minor route (my route).
When riding there's normally cars coming up the right lane to avoid the motorway queue, then squeeze in left at the roundabout, making the primary to turn right very nervy as they approach and hassle at 70 - 90ish.
This morning i got into the right lane at the correct place, stayed at the correct speed (60), but loved the look and frustration of the drivers behind who were suddenly not able to do their usual morning trick.
Before i get flamed, there was nothing dangerous, i am the only cyclist i have ever seen there, and yes , childish i know.
But fun.
