I do not appreciate Edinburgers' passive aggression, I much prefer Glaswegians' honest open aggression. "Excuse me, this is a cycle path" "Aye, but it's also a bus stop overlapping an unsegregated cycle route, so dinnae blame me fir yer local cooncils shortcomings, pal!"

    @HighlandLawyer the levels of entitlement seen amongst some cyclists (not all by any means) is absolutely incredible. It seems that pinging the bell and/or shouting abuse are the default response. Very rarely do they apply the brakes, and only as the absolute last resort. The only explanation I can find is that for years they have been bullied by motor vehicles and now they bully the pedestrians. It is depressing how often the bullied become the bullies.
