    I had that at a wedding a few months back - I just like nodded a bit cos like the guy is otherwise a fully functional nice adult and it was someones wedding. I do need to develop some path to dealing with it again though.

    Jaysus cycling!

    I'm pro bell I tend to use it muted mostly, like a gentle click sound, and mostly use it for saying hello. You ring them more than you pedal in the Netherlands, and they have some experience cycling.

    Jaysus cycling!

    Aye. I'm still seeing mad shit and i think i've actually adjusted my riding a bit to avoid it. I noticed this evening that I've slipped into taking the the slightly longer less traffic interfacing route over the past two weeks without even having a conversation with myself about it. This evening...

    Jaysus cycling!

    not constantly, but I always have it with me on the carrier. It depends on how many taxi drivers i expect to be near essentailly. Putting it on the carrier is a really good early road rage detection system (also driver rules of road knowledge test similar to the brown m&m's one). A much lower...

    Jaysus cycling!

    The internet tells me the bike itself is 14kg. Then i've a U lock, chain lock and the steel rope thing, all the clothes for work, all the food and drink for the day, swimming stuff just in case and some wash bag type stuff for changing. I was kinda surprised myself I always assumed the whole...

    I'm probably repeating the first answer on the thread but is the battery removable on them? He probably needs to look at taking a train and leaving the car where it is :P

    Jaysus cycling!

    actually in one case loads of people were trapped a light in galway here, and eventually the guy about two cars back asked the cycle box person to reverse back onto the sensor because it couldn't see anything when our filter lane was due. It worked, but it was for a filter. In that case, being...

    I always wonder about the advance stop box people - like the sensor is under where they are supposed to be, does is mean they spend longer at the lights because they haven't stopped on the sensor coil

    I don't think you buy a supercar with a view to not being a dickhead in all fairness

    Jaysus cycling!

    I pass in the region of 2-600 cars per day depending on traffic and can confirm, it's 599 people driving like adults and 1 driving like an angry child. I was reading some cycle spam on facebook (some 'bloody cyclists' thread) and was thinking, online all those angry child drivers can converge...

    I like it for my overall distance - it mostly is telling me that I'm consistent from may-october and totally fairweather over winter. I've been slowly buying up winter cycling gear this year to see if I can run into november. The odd time I do see if I can go extra fast on a bit if i'm in the mood.
