I can't decide which i hate more: 1) non-cyclists who hate cyclists and judge everything they do as annoying and wrong, or 2) shit cyclists. In fact i think i hate shit cyclists because they encourage non-cyclists to hate on cyclists in general.
I live near a crossroads and it's very rare for me to see a cyclist actually stop at the red lights if they're riding on the road. I've nearly been hit when crossing on a green man too many times. Equally don't like the number of times i've been cycled into by a cyclist cycling over pedestrian crossings (especially the narrow ones with railings) - surely if you're in a pedestrian area you should get off and push (at least that's what i do)?! Grr.

Exactly. A mate of mine from work is also a cyclist, and just hates people who run through red lights as a friend of his was clipped by a cyclist. It baffles me how cyclists can think it's ok to cycle through pedestrian crossings when it's green for the pedestrians.
Last week I saw an older guy cycling in the wrong direction down a one way, and then onto a pedestrian island, over a pedestrian crossing and into the path of a car. I was just like WTF DUDE??? I sometimes feel the need to apologise.
