Today, I was cut up twice and was nearly side swiped on a roundabout. Nothing out of the ordinary, except I was in my car, with my bike on the back.

It seems that once a (non cycling) motorist sees a bike, even if it is on the back of anoher car, stupidity rules the day!!

At least if they did hit you, the consequences for them would be a little more serious. :smile:

Come on, let's be fair. It would be significantly harder to have the car on the back of the bike....

I have noticed that drivers are just impatient in general it does not matter if your on a bike or in another vehicle they will still cut you up, pull out and generally try to get 10 feet further down the road as fast as the can and if that means causing an accident they do not care / to busy on phone etc

I was driving back from Hailsham to Bromley after completing a 67 mile Audax with over 5000ft of climbing which for a 16+stone bloke is bloody hard work;)

Does that let me off, having the bike on the back of the car :tongue:

Clearly you're no Steve Abraham then, because you'd ride it not drive it. :biggrin:
