Yesterday went for a short ride with my son from brighouse to littleborough using the towpaths on the salter and hebble and rochdale canels.
Nice relaxing ride got to littleborough and stopped for a bite to eat like you do when this character comes tanking up on his mtb skids to an halt at one of those path restrictions (the ones that stop motorbikes and the likes from using the paths) curses as he struggles through and then shoots off.
Anyway about half hour later he comes back again tanking it shoots off ahead just as we start our return trip.
On the return journey we kept getting funny looks and the odd mumbling as we passed walkers so i stopped and asked a couple why the strange looks and it turns out this knobhead we saw had just ridden past everyone at full pelt without giving any consideration to anyone and obviously felt that the towpath was just for him that day.
Thanks to him i had to put up with the pissed off walkers the rest of the ride.
So mister cyclist if you are on here please be assured that should you one day be tanking it up that way again and you try passing me better think again!
Right moan over with off on the trans pennine trail tomoz come rain or shine.
