Driving home tonight up the Embankment in Bedford, and some ******* clampit on his bike dressed black with hoodie up and no lights pops off the curb onto the road right in front of me.

I took slight evasive action but it happened to be at the point where there are little crossing islands and I caught the curb with my off side front slicing the side wall.

fcukwit cycles off into the darkness whilst I'm left facing a bill for two front tyres (always replace in pairs)

Makes my blood boil

Buy some lights and reflective gear

 

why swerve, only way they will learn is when they are under the front wheels,
Yes Im a cyclist and motor cyclist.

 

Fair shout... problem is the initial reaction was too. had the island not been there I would not have even crossed the white line...

 

lol yea sound advice murder someone.

 

It`s not like we would miss the road tax and insurance haha,
Being fair it does tell you not to swerve in the highway code.

 

Yea fair point and as a result any offenders deserve to die

 

feel for ya, bedford for you i hate driving along the embankment at night the amount of drunk/cyclists ive nearly knocked over by running out, id rather hit someone at 2 mph than kerp my wheels! they will learn to not do it again (you would hope)

 

Idiots like this really wind me up, I do feel for you mate.

I remember as a kid getting pulled by an officer just for riding on the pavement in broad daylight, granted it was many years ago.

I was very lucky in an incident as I parked up outside my house & opened my door only for another idiot to just miss running in it.

I just don't understand why adults as well as kids use the pavement instead of the road

Arghhhhhhh!
