Chips thrown at me

[Ellis456]

Not a very nice ride today, come to a roundabout car to my left decides to pull out in front of me had to slam my brakes in otherwise would have gone into the side if the car, am I invisible?, no apology , wearing a white top white helmet I must be!.




Second coming up to a pich point under a bridge, car pushes me into the curb, it then slows ahead I tell them to learn to drive and look where there going, I go ahead and as they drive past me the female passenger throws a packet of chips (like from mcdonalds) at me but misses, could have at least aimed better.




Why are these people allowed to breed?, getting sick of the abuse for doing nothing wrong, but Im not going to stop my cycling!!!, I dont give in that easily!.




Didnt get it on camera unluckily as still waiting for memory card to arrive.

Ugg, I hate when those kinds of things happen. Although, the image of fries flying through the air sure sounds funny to me. =P

Im not afraid of them but I fear one day just like the incident in Bexley someone will attack me physically or use there car as a weapon at me. Has anyone here had objects thrown at them?, if so what?.

Not yet but I love it when SUV's turning right think it's appropriate to speed up and turn right in front of me in the cycling lane. My little bell doesn't get their attention and neither does my crazy bike juggling act.

Dont you just hate ignorant pigs who behave like that. I had a fat women passenger shout at me to go faster.I caught up with them at the next traffic lights, tapped on the window and politely informed her they had missed their turning, Mcdonalds is back there you fat *****. :-) and rode off.

A white van man or more likely his passenger threw a bottle at me last year while out riding in the country. He, and consequently the bottle, were going at a reasonable speed as the van overtook but fortunately it only hit my back pack.

Someone threw a bottle of piss at the FNRttC peleton in East London last year.

A bit off topic but I have a convertible car and had things thrown at me. I know that there's a danger when on a bike but having a stone the size of a golf ball which luckily didn't strike me but hit the dashboard.

There's buggers everywhere.

to be fair, McDonalds chips aren't that great... are you sure they weren't aiming for a litter bin?

Someone chucked a can of Strongbow at me the other week, but missed.

No defiantly at me, there are no bins around there and she shouted at me while throwing them, couldn't hear what the fat jabba said, properly off to get more chips to stuff her face.

This isn't going to reassure you, but yes, at 30+ must-overtake-bike-before-the next-traffic-island heading in your home direction down Shooters Hill. It was a can and, judging from the sound, not an empty can. Luckily his throwing abilities matched his brain capacity.

Chips in Bickley. They wound the window up before I could throw them back. Fish and chip shop style chips, not your average burger chain French fries. Gosh, this is making me feel hungry....

See the full can is a different ball game, that hitting you at speed is deadly, I wish you could have thrown it back!.
