Years ago crossing London Bridge in the right hand lane a cyclist tried to overtake but didn't have enough power, I started to leave him behind and he grabbed my arm. We had words.
What advice?If I am on my road bike & riding along the Aire Valley in lycra, roadies offer me nothing more then pleasantries, fine. However, if on the same route and I am riding my hybrid, wearing t-shirt & shorts, with pannier full of shopping, some uber roadies are unable to pass me without offering unsolicited advice (aka bollox), it drives me crazy. I just can't be bothered and have settled on, "**** off, big nose" as a standard reply, if they stop then so much the better.
I seen countless videos when one cyclist cuts up another cyclist and they end up having an argument or shouting verbal abuse at one another.
I have never been in a confrontational situation as I don't cycle in London but I can imagine people's blood boiling.
Has anyone encountered a confrontational situation with another cyclist?
Yeah go on YouTube.Have you got links to these countless videos?

No no. Maybe I should change the title. Sorry about it.You've got some strange ideas about cycling soup, you keep making stuff up that demonises cyclists, you've done it before.
