General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
This morning, on my way to Westhoughton, I got as far as Castle Hill, Hindley, before coming up against a slow moving tanker.
In front of the tanker was a cyclist.
He wasn’t a TomPlum cyclist, he was on a racing bike, full Lycra suit, helmet etc. and he was all over the road, standing up on the pedals, snaking left, right, left, right, so much so the tanker couldn’t get past, nor could I, nor could the long queue of traffic that built up behind us!
This was up to the traffic lights at Cricketers Way in Westhoughton where the cyclist went through the lights on red, stood , balancing on his pedals, in the middle of the junction until he spied a gap before carrying on, on his merry way, totally regardless of the lights still on red.
You couldn’t make it up!
These dickheads make cyclists enemies!
