Just the one set, and a railway crossing, only sets you back by up to 5 minutes maximum.

You lucky bleeder.
I lose count after the 40th set of lights/junctions on my commute.

Nearly had a fight on the way home. Some small todger guy didn't like the fact I dared to tell him his driving was sh1t. Cue a mile or so of him/me agreeing to stop and have fisticuffs, cue me continue to cycle and wave.
You naughty boy, I would never do that

Had a pull out on me from Tesco in Didsbury by a chap in a five series. As I was already accelerating from a previous set of lights, just flicked the bike right, overtook him and pulled in front of him and was away. Buy a faster BMW next time.

A very nice car (not the driver) i must add black Honda beeped at me to move. Only to be stopped by red lights and me in front of him again. Silly drivers when would they ever learn.

Got hit head on this morning. Car turned into the road I was on - only a car and a half wide, cars parked both sides - I come to a dead stop, he keeps coming on, head down, no hands on wheel. Guess why? He's texting. Only notices me when he hits, fortunately low speed. To cap it all he hops out and lets me have an earful. Bit shaky on the rest of the ride but no damage done.
An "unpopular" Airzound would have alerted the dipstick to your presence.

Decided to come on my roadie today, after getting drenched and caked in mud going home last night down the canal. After 8 weeks of cycling the down the canals the hills hurt today but managed to keep a steady pace climbing so Im happy

Long route into the city this am. Added 7 miles over the direct route. Helped a student lock her bike up, and showed her where to place the d lock and her cable to ensure all wheels and frame was secure. Brand new Spesh hybrid. Good deed for the day.

To be honest, I couldn't be bothered. Two blokes in the car, just me, no witnesses that I saw, no footage. Shouldn't be a waste of time but would be. C'est la vie.
