Bicycle: a means of transport between cake-stops
- Location
- London
Went along to the London Critical Mass for the first time in a few months, and was very disappointed to see that the thugs seem to have taken over now it's no longer policed.
I saw numerous examples of cyclists deliberately winding-up motorists, in several instances swearing at them.
There was no excuse for the car driver who ran over the rear wheel of a bike blocking his path, but I wasn't at all surprised to see it given the provocation going on.
I left the ride at Holborn as I didn't want to be associated with the tone of the ride.
It was particularly disappointing given a large turnout, the vast majority of whom were out for a pleasant good-humoured ride. To have that spoiled by a loud and aggressive minority of troublemakers is a great shame. :-(
