Motorists, a tip!
Jan. 17th, 2013 07:51 pmIf you are going up a hill, and a short woman who will be 46 at the end of the month overtakes you, and she is on a bicycle with an over-tight rear brake and you are in a car, YOU ARE GOING TOO SLOW!
And if you're from Victoria and were driving around Newtown this morning and are still wondering why that bicycle lady was so cross, it's because you killed all my speed on the downhill and then sat right in my way on the up!
Honestly! I'm reasonably fit, but in nothing like competitive condition, so if I am easily riding past your car while going up a reasonably steep hill, surely you need to be asking yourself what the hell you're up to. I even gave her the benefit of the doubt for the first half mile and assumed she must be looking for a park … We parted way at City Rd, I shudder to think what Sydney motorists said to her.
In other news, there is a chap from the NRA on the 7.30 Report tonight. I think he might be Satan. Oh, and now here's William Hague …
