Came across a blue van driving twunt yesterday morning in the New Forest...

Reasonable wide road, two of us riding abreast (sadly not a 34DD+ 😉 ), no traffic coming the other way on a long straight road (could see for ~200 metres or so).

Said twunt decides it's too logical to pass us very safely by going on the other side of the road, but coast behind us blasting his horn.

Twunt got a mouthful, after deciding in his world, two abreast was inconsiderate to motor vehicles. Told to re-read the Highway Code and jog on.

If it had been a narrow lane (less than ~1.5 car widths), we would have been happy to pull over. But this road was ~2.5 car widths width, roman road straight with no oncoming traffic for the next ~30+ seconds at the time!
