These have reminded me of the woman who was trying to get up close and personal with me a couple of weeks ago.
I was riding in primary, approching the lights at the north end of Kew bridge, in one of the right hand turn lanes (not going over the bridge).
As it's downhill to the lights I can get up to about 25 mph, when I noticed a little red mini driving alongside me. As I was in primary she wasn't in either lane but straddling the two.
Well I wasn't being beaten by a toy car, so got out of the saddle, changed gear and left her to get in the lane behind me.
When I got to the lights, I joined the back of 2 car queue. As I'm sitting up, filling my lungs with oxygen, I look down to my right and see the little red mini edging alondside me. Now I really am in primary, right in the middle of lane and I would be a little put out if even a motorbike pulled alongside me, but a car.
Why???? To gain the extra 4-5 feet that my bike is occupying.
It didn't matter though because it appears I have more horsepower in my legs than she had under her bonnet, and she didn't gain anything at all.
