Nov. 8th, 2012 04:22 pmToday I am annoyed about http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cycling/20246940 and http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cycling/20255862 (Wiggins and British cycling's head coach both injured in crashes with vehicles). And about twitter reaction to same, not all of it of course but some of it.
Anyway. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I hate motorists who drive without taking enough care to spot cyclists; which obviously isn't ALL motorists, but it's ENOUGH motorists that I (as a cyclist) need to be very wary of all the motorists on the road because I can't know which of them are good, observant people and which of them are not. But even more GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I hate people who think that when a motorist drives their vehicle in such a way as to hit a cyclist that the cyclist should be blamed for being there.
So now I'm cross about that. And not very articulate.
