Good overtakes

[benb]

Had some very good overtakes today, especially the builder's lorry (twice!), so I thought I'd share to make a change from bad driver threads (not that there's anything wrong with that)

It's not very exciting though is it!

Aye, they looked good, except for the last overtake by the white van. He was pushing it a bit to get past before the traffic island. Typical follow the leader driving!

I slowed down & waved a R turning white van across in front of me this morning, as it looked like he was in for a long wait for another gap.
Maybe someone did something similar for your 'good overtakes' in the past, & the driver thought-
"Oh- a Cyclist ! Nice peeps these, must be carefull how I overtake this chap".

I can dream, can't I?

Yeah, but at least he gave me enough room - if he'd misjudged it it would only be the front of his van he'd have damaged!

Sorry for the clip not being very exciting! I'll try and get into an altercation on the way home for you.

It didn't look cold out but I'm sure I could hear your teeth chattering.

Probably just the plastic lanyard on the camera rattling. I've taken it off now, as it seemed pretty useless.

Noooo dont do that, I took mine off 6 months ago, I'll be buggered if I can find it now!!
