PQ May 2013 1:05pm, 2 May 2013 5,041 posts	Quote Pin PQ One of the reasons I cycle is so that I'm not sitting in traffic. Therefore I pass traffic when it's stationary. Magnumpti I do sometimes it it's safe to do so.
Wine Legs May 2013 1:52pm, 2 May 2013 3,291 posts	Quote Pin Wine Legs Drivers who overtake you at speed, then slam on their brakes for every speed bump in the road. I was cycling along quite happily until some cocksucker in a Porsche 4x4 overtook me, then slammed on his brakes to slow to 5mph or so every 50 metres for about 1/4 mile. Dickwad. Firstly, why did you overtake me and then cut me up? Secondly, you're in a fucking 4x4. It's meant to go over bumps. At a reasonable speed. Thirdly, why would you not let me pass again so I could continue my journey without having to accelerate and decelerate constantly? Oh it's because you're a cockend. That's why.

magnumpti May 2013 2:34pm, 2 May 2013 51 posts	Quote Pin magnumpti Do you mean me Duchess or just cyclists who ride like cocks in general? I only pass on the outside if they are stationary and they've pulled in intentionally or, like the woman I see nearly every day, they think they are driving a tank when they are in fact in a Peugeot 106 and therefore leave me no room. However, just like a car will overtake me if it can go faster than I can I also switch it back, if they are going slower than me I overtake them.
