Title: Cyclist defends himself
Post by Doctor Jolly on Feb 21st, 2012 at 1:11pm

This will get up control freaks like juliar

http://www.news.com.au/national/cyclist-takes-revenge-on-pushy-hatchback-driver/story-e6frfkvr-1226276919814

A CYCLIST has been caught on video taking revenge on a car driver who nearly knocked him off his bike.
The silver hatchback tried to change lanes in heavy traffic pushing within 30cm of the cyclist.
After angrily gesturing to the driver, the cyclists took a solid swipe at the hatchback's mirror knocking it off.

Thats a little harsh on the car driver.  He made a bad decision, he got his come-up-ance.

If he, and fellow meathead drivers, dont learn anything from that, then perhaps "brain dead" is apt.

Thats what happens when you duck and weave traffic as if you own the road. Same for on a motorbike. If you want to die quickly, you duck and weave into blind spots.

That rider is going to be dead soon anyway, so he should go for as many mirrors as possible.

A decent kick in the cars side panel causes some damage while wearing cycling shoes with cleats.
Cars think twice about cutting you off after theyve seen that happen a few times.

Kicking doors and breaking mirrors is perfect response to someone trying to kill  you by running off the road.

There is a war  going on. The oppressed (cyclists) are rising up.  There may be casualties when blackadder follows through with his threats, but the blackadders of the world will doing 25 to life afterwards, so effectively illiminated from the equation.

You cut me off with your car and get out while I kick your door in I'll make sure I throw flowers on your coffin and give your missus a cuddle at your funeral service  ;D

Bikes can do a lot of damage to the front and rear spoilers etc when you run over them.

Many years ago in South Molton street W1, (It was featured on the last Ab Fab when the girls went shopping) opposite where I used to work; a bloke parked a very rusty old bike on the kerb and went into the jewellers. After a couple of minutes a very shiny roller came along and parked in the same place, knocking over the bike. The driver looked down at the bike and went into the jewellers without righting it. The first bloke came out a few minutes later, looked at his bike, looked at the roller and then picked up his bike and slammed it down on the bonnet, picked it off and rode away. Very funny.
