Had a fabulous ride this morning; 21km with a few stops for going the wrong way and needing to re-set to the right route. I totally made mincemeat of the South-bound approach to Wimbledon Hill, the one I used to run up when I was learning to run. Steeper than coming at it from Wimbledon Broadway on the other side and with speed bumps for added fun. I needed to turn right at the roundabout at the top so the last 100m I was slap bang in the middle of the road to be in the right position to turn right and to get in between the speed bumps. Obviously, as I was going up a hill, I wasn't all that quick. And clearly, as the white van made pointed out by yelling at me, I should have "pull(ed) over! *incoherent unintelligible words*". Er right then. Bikes aren't road users and shouldn't position themselves correctly for the action they are about to take. How about; fuck off, you twat, and go read the highway code, eh? Anyhoo, I was utterly unfazed at the time 'cause I'd just thrashed the hill and felt great :o)

That sausage looks amazing! I bloody hate some drivers, I got beeped at running last week cause I crossed the road, even though they were ages away, tossers. Glad your enjoying your bike. I will have one someday!
ReplyDeleteThe sausage was a freebie in my Alternative Meats order and a totally unexpected surprise :o) The oooonly problem is that I have no reliable nutritional info for it, so I'm guessing at average beef sausages as they're 85% beef and no added fat. Obsessive counter, me? *grin* But still, free sausages! :oD
