Tractor drivers.
I was told this today by a car drivers. There were some road works, so i went down the outside of all the cars. I stopped being a car and sat there for a while, and the guy wound down his window and said why dont you go on the pavement. I told him i wasnt going to ride on the paverment and went b the side of his car, and we had a chat. And he said i was as bad as bloody tractor drivers. Maybe he thought i was causing this hold up, and not the road works? I had gone up the road, and cars couldnt get passed, so they had to wait behing me for a very short distance for there to be enough room.
I also had cars honking at me, abuse shouted from the windows of cars, and a guy saying i'm as bad as tractor drivers. I asked him what he ment but he just said for me to walk the bike, which wouldnt have been any quicker.
He also said i didnt know what to do on the road, because i wouldnt go on the pavement and ride.
What have other people been compaired to?
