1 - Got beeped at for moving into primary through a pinch point. If he had been paying attention he would have noticed I moved out and back after each one. There certainly wasn't any need to point and wave at the kerb.
2 - You will notice that the road gets so narrow over the Ingreborne that the cycle lane stops and starts again the other side. I tried to find out where their office is, but I suspect it is a just a man and van carpet fitter so no point complaining. The web site does not exist either.

3 - Same place as (1) but going to work the next day and a van passed me even closer than (2). Can't wait for next week and the schools are back, that slows the cars to a crawl and I can get on with out worrying. (no film of this one as battery ran out)

Aiiee! That van made an appalingly bad close pass. Mind you, that vid shows exactly why I don't like cycle 'farcilities' as it simply isn't wide enough to have a cycle lane, hence whenever the lane ends, the cyclist is left in a dangerous road position through no fault of his/her own.

Its been p&&&ing me off too. These last 2 days have been simply stupid the way some people have driven and no amount of great drivers can make up for some twit who is in a bad mood or late.

Just been putting some of mine up on youtube too. I've been more frustrated these past two days than Quagmire has been the entire series of Family Guy. ;)
