  1. Cycling home yesterday, I was using the narrow lane that is part of the route, freewheeling and then
    coming towards me was a Jaguar , the new 2 seater,I was a bit dozey and didn't have time to steer
    towards him to get myself some more room and he had already passed the passing space, but he just
    managed to squeeze past me ( with a foot to spare the other side) . I shouted what I thought of him.
    About 1 mile further on , he comes towards me again, stops winds down the windo and says "Sorry
    about that before mate, sorry!" I was so suprised I could do little more than grunt at him( iIt was
    a steep uphill).

  2. The bright side is that at least he had the gumption to come back & apologise and that you weren't
    hurt in the squeezing.

    Cheers, helen s

    Indeed...who knows, maybe that oversized waste of space in the range rover that ran over the guy
    with his daughter in the trailer *really was* coming back to apologise, like he claimed in court.
    Maybe it's a new part of the HC that we are, generally, not aware of yet ;-)

    Rule 62c - If you really [censored] a cyclist, pedestrian or equestrian of by your incompetence behind the
    wheel, at least go back and apologise. If possible, try presenting a box of chocolates and a bunch
    of flowers to indicate your sincerety.

    Anyone got any news of how that is progressing ? cheers,

    Dave .

    Of course it was balanced out today, when one overtook me and turned left, while I was indicating
    right to turn right.

    Oiii!! Guy, want to guess what type of car it was?
