View Full Version : So I almost got in a fight yesterday - unsurprisingly - with a cyclist
walking back from the gym between Mansion House and Cannon St. There's a square bit next to the road which I walk through which apparently is designated as a cycle area. It's about 25ft square and as I entered it a cyclist entered on the opposite side in a direction which would have taken him away from me to the other side. As soon as he saw me in the square he changed direction towards me and rode directly at me forcing me to stop. At that point he swerved away from me and gave me an earful along the lines of 'this is a f*cking cycle space'. To which I replied 'I don't care'.
He was a very ugly, skinny runt of a human being whom I could have quite easily beaten into a pulp so when he replied with 'f*ck off you bald tw@t' as he cycled away I asked him if he was man enough to say that to my face. He turned around and repeated it several times directly in front of me as I considered the extent of the assault laws in the UK. Can't really remember what I said but I think it ended with me telling him I'd be nice and not kick his head in and then gently slapped him twice on the shoulder.
All of which a) makes me hate the lycra clad c*nts even more, and b) makes me wonder if he committed a crime. Is there no law which prevents someone from being incredibly insulting and rude to an individual in public? I'm sure there is no way I could have legally beaten him senseless (more's the pity) but surely there is some point at which vermin like this have committed a crime as he was clearly looking for the confrontation.

You could have pointed out that pedestrians always have right of way on ALL UK highways and that his behaviour was both illegal and reckless.
Tw@tting him - while satisfying - would have meant a lot of paperwork. Best just to wait until he suffers his well-deserved fate under a bus or lorry.

The cyclist might have had a camera on his helmet
I will look for it on YouTube (if it doesn't end up on the Daily Mail site)

There's always the point where you could rip the camera from his head, stamp on it and then proceed to beat the **** out of him ?

Now I am not one to usually take your side but you were clearly the lesser of two ****s in this situation

I'm off for a lay down.
I'd be willing to bet that this muppet has these confrontations pretty frequently as it was rather obvious he was looking for it. Sadly, that will mean he knows exactly what he can and can't do in order to stay on the right side of the law.
I consider myself pretty civilized but there really is something wrong when a scrawny little sh1t with a big mouth can be that abusive and not get slapped for it. :-(
