There you go,your trying to get a reaction to your calling,im sure thats one of the classic descriptions for trolls:biggrin:
So mag,do you think putting other peoples safety at risk is worth holding primary for when there really is no need?:biggrin:
 
How often have you been overtaken impatiently, only to pass the same car a couple of minutes later? It happens to me a couple of times a week at least.

Yeah,what is that about?

Follow that line though and you're accepting that bikes shouldn't be on the road because they hold cars up.

How often have you been overtaken impatiently, only to pass the same car a couple of minutes later? It happens to me a couple of times a week at least.

And as to the 'causing danger' bit, Mag hasn't caused anyone any danger. He didn't make the driver do anything. In the same way that cyclists don't cause heart attacks in drivers, they don't make them choose to carry out dangerous manoeuvres like the one in the vid.


What makes you assume,i say ASSUME:biggrin: that i accept your rediculous statement that bikes shouldnt be on the roads?Its about being sensible and courtious to other road users,i dont know about you,well i probably do,but i would have been straight into secondary off that rb,and if i hadnt i would have expected somesort of reaction from drivers im holding up for nothing.
Mag has caused that situation because he held his obstruction too early for too long,he knows how cars react to that,just think back to all his troubles because of his riding style and report techniques,it says a lot to what his cycling style is like for others.

Can you kind people *please* stop responding to Col, or at least don't bloody quote him. Eventually I'm going to ignore both the trolls and the troll feeders, but since some of the responders are moderators or admins, I can't unless I leave the forum.

Mr Hippo you've got completely confused. I am not claiming that when the car was stopped that my hand made contact. It didn't. I was just gesticualting. I made contact at approximately 47-48 seconds into the video when the car was driving past me. That's where the drama is! ;)

From the position of your hand when the car passed you, there is no way that your palm was in full contact with the window. I was just using the 'stop' footage to show the bend in your wrist and to compare it with the 47-48 second mark. Your fingertips may have touched the car when it was passing but not full contact with your palm!
