I often think this could go horribly wrong for the driver at times.You've got a cyclist who is hepped up on adenaline from cycling and exercising his or her body, and usually a tubby lard arse who is too unfit to do anything but bang the steering wheel in rage.

Either they're gonna have an annyerism (sp?) or if they are stupid enough to actually physically try and start a fight they'll come off a lot worse. So they need to chill. :smile:

What possible weapons have you got in that car Mr Angry Driver? Copy of the AA road map to t*** me with? Let me get my 5kg abus chain out and wrap it around your face. :smile:

God no, I'm just kidding. :biggrin:

Still, atleast the driver in question remained behind. The driver of the Ford Explorer this summer held on to his horn (I was doing 30 in a 30 zone but he HAD to get past) whilst barging through. I got a letter in the local rag about that too.

I’m sure there was an old anecdote of Eric Morcombe’s where his car had broken down and a driver started beeping at him. He went over to him and said something like “I’ll tell you what mate – you fix the engine in my car and I’ll lean on that horn for you.”

Peter Ustinov, I think.

It's really annoying when drivers do that but you can take comfort from the fact that the driver has seen you.
