Subject: RE: BS: Bleeping Cyclist
Aw shucks guys, I'm not really the angry type at all, but I do like to get a bit sweary when I'm behind the wheel, it helps to get me through the day (I actually dislike driving). I'm also a cyclist, and a pedestrian, and I sometimes tow a caravan, so I'm well aware of the different capabilities of the various users of the bit of road we all have to share. A slow vehicle in front of my car is just one of life's minor passing irritations - you can't do much about it. But two cyclists side by side and not getting out of the way of the queue of cars behind them is an example of the kind of sense of entitlement which just makes the world a less good place. A bit like dog owners, but that's a different thread.

So just pull over into single file, it doesn't hurt.
