I don't usually boast about things like this, but thought i'd just put it in the public domain to that absolute a*** of a tractor driver on the road from Emersons Green out towards to the Cotswolds who decided beeping at me and gesturing rudefully as I struggled at 12mph up a 10% climb would really make me go faster ate sour grapes when I overtook him doing 26.1MPH on the flat.

Ave it. That feels better.

A tractor driver being impatient at being held up? Oh the irony.
 
I had a idiot of a tractor driver overtake me on this stretch of road. He was towing a muck spreader which made what he did doubly worse. I was riding to the right of that white line as you do and he pulls alongside me around a foot between me and his massive rear wheel. He's giving me dirty look through the glass door and he pulls in a little bit. I had to escape to the space between the line and the edge of the road before he pulled over entirely and was near enough up against the white line.

The thing is he was only moving around 2-4mph faster than me at the time (I was going at around 18mph according to my speedo) so he was passing me really slowly and was alongside for at least 10-15 seconds. I never got the chance to overtake him again.
