Will this never end?

Today, at a pinch point on Princes St (by the Mound, heading West), I stop behind a bus and wait for the lights - the road narrows, there's no ASL, and when cyclists move to the front they hold up the numerous buses and other users sat behind them.

WTF! Mr "brand new bottom-end Ribble" flails past, baggies and road top (probably the same DH shoes with spds ๐Ÿ™„ ), sti's pointing at God, and goes right to the front of the traffic. Lights change, and several buses back, I am forced to "progress" at 10-12mph.

FFS! I'll need to have a word next time I see him. He may have recognised me but I was in shorts and cons today.

this morning i played the part of asshat driver and sideswiped a spandex bob.

unfortunately given the speed of the bump, actually due to me undertaking and having to avoid a telegraph pole, i was unable to see what type of crabon fibre replica team bike bob was riding
