The cyclist must be an idiot who doesnt use his ears.
Even if I'm walking, I would be wary of any sound of engine
running and give a wide berth once I see the car. If I'm cycling,
obviously I would be more alert and brakes on standby.
Talk is cheap.
I langa once. But that one time was bad enough. Old man appeared
from nowhere from behind the wall and I jammed brake but skidded
and hit him in the midriffs. Luckily I wasnt going fast, so it was
more like a bump to his stomach, but it scared the shit out of both
of us.
Granted, of cos I wasnt supposed to be cycling under the block,
but the idiots who lived on the first floor hang clothes, put
flower pots on the walkway making it practically impossible for me
to wheel my bike through bcos of lack of space.
