You made a point of noting he was doing 8 mph on a "gas-pipe Raleigh". I
think it would be a shame if we gave the impression that people who do 8
MPH on gas-pipe Raleighs somehow didn't belong on the road just because
they delay your journey.


They can delay me (and the rest of the queue) once, no problem. But
having delayed us, and having finally been passed, going to the front
of the queue at the next stop, particularly by breaking the law, is
downright ignorant.

So you are against ASLs for cyclists then? Having been passed they
should wait their place in the queue at the next lights.

Actually I usually wait my turn at lights, but it is rarely difficult
for a car to pass a cyclist.
