ok well its been a year nearly since i have been cycling and tonight i had a bike rage incident. My first and hopefuly my last.
Coming down Burwood highway, i was riding on a flat section alot of traffic passing pretty quickly. Then a cyclist, undertakes me on such a silly place i could hardly believe what had happened, doing so he also nudged into me pushing me further into the path of traffic. Not good. Obviously i thought id catch up with him and just explain he nearly pushed me into traffick, he then, wait for it. Told me to Foxtrot oscar (if you know what i mean) and that i was to slow.
Taking a while to take in this guys attitide i decided to give chase and prove to him however fast or slow you might be riding you DO NOT undertake especially on a road like burwood highway. I then tried to talk to him again at the next lights, obviously as i was not to slow and he once again told me to foxtrot oscar as he has been riding up this road for 20 years.
I then decided i would prove to him how slow i was and keep up his ass until i had had enough and left him behind on one of the hills.
If any of you see this guy, or it is you (about 40 riding an old Bianchi in bianchi colours with black forks and black rear triangle) please give him a piece of my mind.
I got an element of satisfaction from it though as he was trying his hardest to get away from me and even on my shopping bike as the mrs calls it (the commuter) he couldnt pull away.
All in all what a PRICK
