Racing roadkill
Guru
Hot on the heels of an ‘animated’ discussion with an ‘expert’ in my local on Sunday, where we had a ‘bingo full house’ “you lot need to pay road tax” ( which I countered with the fact it’s an emissions based duty, a G wizz doesn’t pay, so why should I? Which was duly followed by “yeah but you lot don’t pay insurance” ( countered by showing him my BC membership card and pointing out that there are believed to be more drivers driving without insurance, than there are cyclists riding without insurance) then the entirely predictable “if there’s a cycle lane provided, you have to use it” ( countered by my explanation that that isn’t the case, and that there is a 12-14 mph limit on a path, and that I’m often doing more than that up hill, let alone on the flat / downhill), I’ve just had a prat in a Mercedes pull up beside me and start shouting “There’s a f*****g cycle lane over there, F*****g use it you w****r”.
