Little things that make you a little smug

[Lizban]

Oh and another thing - road works controlled by lights that take forever to change!

 

[jonny jeez]

Lol I know that Roundabout, it the Paxton Road one isn't it...

BUSTED!!

Although I approach from Plaistow lane....see the little path ahead of me below!

When I'm stopped at a set of lights sipping from my water bottle all buzzed up from the exercise and looking at bloke in the car next to me starring at his fat belly - watch him suck it in!

Felt particually smug this day...cycling along a cycle lane, past a particually busy stretch where traffic only manages a crawl....buzz straight past them on the inside
I can see this BMW driver watching me as i approached from behind....he slowly blocks the cycle lane....quite deliberately.
So i just switched to the outside, went past his open drivers window and said...dunno why you bothered mate
Didnt even slow the pace while he was still stuck there

This seems to happen a lot...

Mine's a simple one - a hot sunny day, just sometimes you can actually see a look of envy through a windscreen.

Wearing ankle socks in bed.

Oh, I thought it said 'Little things that make you a little snug........'

Being able to walk with the bike on the pavement in case of total gridlock - and still being faster than if I was stuck in a car!

 

[Cranky]

Going straight to my actual destination (post office/precinct etc) and locking the bike up without having to drive around looking for a parking space.

 

[Lazy-Commuter]

Not having to worry about where your feckin car keys are.

(Which is what I'm doing now, having just remembered that I drove in and not being able to remember what I've done with them )

 

[threebikesmcginty]

There's a one mile long stretch of road with speed humps on it on my route and I know if a car's not breaking the speed limit he can't get past me and if he does I'll always get him at the busy T-junction at the end of the road. Hehehe, sends 'em looney!

There are days when in a 6 mile commute I pass solid stationary traffic all the way. So I overtake 2,000 cars per mile, that is 12,000 drivers I have beaten into the City

Do you think these people are stupid - or just unwilling to learn from experience?

They may as well just get out, lock up their cars and walk in...

 

[Twenty Inch]

The fact that if the trains are screwed, I can cycle home and still be at home before the rest of my fellow commuters, and I've had a bonus 25 mile cycle too!
