Sorry to hear about your stack, Littlewaywelt. Hope the neck feels better today.

All very uneventful last few days, except that I got beeped again on the same section of road. It's a fairly narrow, quite busy one-lane each way street with cars parked down either side. I don't judge there's enough room for cars to pass me safely without me being pushed into the door zone, so I take the lane.

That stretch is perhaps 300 metres long, and finishes with a roundabout that invariably has a short queue. I ride down it at about 30km/h, and it's a 40km/h limit.

It's very irritating to keep getting beeped! Maybe Sydney drivers are getting more aggressive? All for the sake of 10km/h and 10 seconds earlier to the traffic queue!

The other day I was following a bus down that stretch. Buses only travel around 25km/h down that road, but I don't see anyone beeping them. Perhaps next time I get stuck behind a bus I'll keep ringing my bell, and making 'move over' gestures, as that seems to be the done thing when stuck behind slower traffic on that stretch!
