As I set off the back wheel brake was rubbing so I had to adjust that and got a flat after only 1.5 miles , this cycling lark isn't all it's cracked up to be .
Apparently "World Car Free Day" today. Ironically traffic was loads worse than yesterday, no particular reason that I could see. Only 1 annoyingly close pass, nothing serious.
Still fine riding weather, pleasant temps and no wind, no rain.
Approached a lights controlled roundabout, my lights were green so I carried on to be confronted by a car from my right who'd decided to ignore his / her red light and pass at speed about two metres in front of me - !
Biggest problem if there'd been a collision is actually proving the phasing of the lights.

I witnessed a bump this morning at lights. Car to my right was coming round the roundabout from two junctions over, and about to go down the road I was coming from. I was 'thinking' of pulling out in my van, when I saw another driver pull across from next lane (who should have waited for car one) and then got hit in the rear quarter by car one. Car two was on a P plate. Driver one should have seen this error from car two but didn't, but car driver two was at fault.
