This happens daily where I live. The cyclists even have the gaul to scream at me for crossing the road where they're cycling.
Some people are just cunts.
Busses: bloody cyclists!
Cars: bloody cyclists!
Lorries: bloody cyclists!
Motorbikes: bloody cyclists!
Pedestrians: bloody cyclists!
Cyclists: I'm doing good for the environment! Everyone else can fuck off!

True but as a mainly pedestrian why does that give cyclists the right to run me over and not take my safety into account? Am I not doing good for the environment too?
We should give everyone respect that shares the road and crossings and pavements. Cyclists seem to be cohort that gives the least amount of respect to everyone. Egalitarian really when you think about it. ๐
Your breathing produces co2 (cyclists don't breathe)
They are machines. One with the bike they sit upon.
I normally run into cyclists who prefer to ride on the pavement, id happily walk towards them as they cycle towards me, forcing them to actually go around me, am i fuck moving out of their way!
Good idea, thank you!
What you failed to notice - and it's okay as it's subtle - is that the cyclist transformed from car-mode to pedestrian-mode to use the zebra crossing and thus you needed to share to (not 'with') him while he was needing your space. Then, of course, he was back to car-mode after leaving the zebra, and saving the environment (so brave!) once again.
It's easy to make that mistake. It's obvious you do owe the cockwomble an apology, though, for taking his space when he was a pedestrian saving the environment and thus better than you.
I try and have respect, and share the road with cyclists.
But they are not reciprocal
I wish everyone using the roads would just be a little calmer and kinder.
All shit like this does is push us to license plates and insurance for all push-bikes.
I wish 'everyone' included the self-important enviro-defenders mowing down pedestrians.
Number plates* or Registration plates* also it's spelled licence.
Okay but I do think we need regs for bikes
Hey, hey, I was tyred.
Confusicius say "man who runs in front of bicyclist, can get tyred".
How legal are shoes with one foot spike strips extending from either side? Learn 'em up a bit.
