    as a rider, ive nearly hit a couple of people who play chicken. last one was a high school kid on a pushie, who looked at me and went anyways. i sped up just slightly, enough to change the cocky look to something else. funny, its always school kids. ive taken to swearing at them loud enough for their mates to hear.
    when i was at high school, and push biked everywhere, i hit quite a few people... girls college tramps walking on the cycle track on the bridge when theres heaps of footpath, kids playing chicken got deliberately ridden into.

    as a pedestrian, i have nearly been hit once, on a crossing in palmy nth. they werent going to stop, and i was already on the crossing when they got there. i was the one that got sworn at. wankers.

    saw a dude on a 250 cruiser the other day, nearly collected someone about to cross at a crossing cos he was too busy staring at me... and, he was going to the aa, so upgrading license. dangerous. jerk off. that crossing has poor vision for both traffic and peds, and must be treated with caution from all sides.

    the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.

    must be the season...

    early this afternoon, leaving takapuna, turning right at some set of traffic lights to get back onto lake road, green for me.

    Enter intersection, lean to turn right, WTF pedestrian walking casually right into my path. On brakes, horn, they look all surprised. I briefly look around to see if I can see a "give way to pedestrians"... nothing... looking at the pedestrian light... red.... right... dumb bitch, pity I saved your bacon

    Somewhere in the CBD a long time ago. I turn left off a main road, and a woman walks out in front of me. Hit the horn and brakes simultaneously. Woman shouts at me "Watch where you're fucking going!". I should back "I was, otherwise I'd have fucking hit you. Next time I won't bother to stop."

    Take it international...

    About 25 seconds, actually.........

    Not a write off, but rather scratched down one side and no brake lever!

    However, as for my temper and ego, ........................stupid bitch!
