I think, even if a driver has a genuine need to hurry, they can't know why cyclists are riding in the way they are. It's fine to be concerned for sometimes safety, but to be angry and intolerant is not reasonable.
If I'm to ride my bike in such a way that I don't inconvenience an unknown person at an unknown time and place, who happens to have an unknown threshold of patience, then I may as well just never ride.
I think this thread has an unfair angle against cyclists. All I'm suggesting is that we have to be considerate, and without being able to communicate easily then we ought to respect the decisions that other road users are making for their own safety reasons. The unfair aspect of this thread is expecting cyclists to know what individual drivers want them to do and to act accordingly.
Anyway, it was about motorbikes originally. What happened there!?
It will mean 12.50 a day to ride anywhere. Time to move I think
Anyway after watching a documentary about the biker-medics at the TT, two words sent a shiver down my spine that has pretty much put me off returning. The two words ?

I more or less packed in two wheels 20 years ago after a bad fall off. My fault, but was nasty, and with a couple of kids and my own lack of speed control and enjoyment of risk, I made the sensible decision to pack it up.
I live in the Peaks, you have to get used to cyclists as they are everywhere at the weekend. Not an issue for me tbh.
Cyclists - my only real problem is those who go through red lights and those who use the pavement. the pavement riders wind me right up, that's really inconsiderate.
