Re: Putting hand up to car drivers who pull over

... the right lane, backed the traffic up and flashed the HGV out. In a car I don't mind stopping to let people out (ideally if they're not going my way lol). I try not to do it on a bike as I think it leaves you in a very vulnerable position- far too open to getting shunted.

Re: Talking in your lid

When I rode down to the mother in law's the other week, I ended up speaking to myself in a myriad of different accents.
I was cold, wet and aching after 3 hours on the bike and started with a Cockney accent and worked my way through French, Russian, Scottish and Welsh.

I have no idea why.

Traffic fines to be quadrupled
