There ought to be some law against getting all uppity, inflated and pretending to be a good deal harder than you actually are.

The jails aren't big enough for that

Appropriate sentencing in this case.

He should be made to wear an outfit like this for 6 months :

I've lost track of who's the twat now

Are we victim blaming or rightly having a go at bloke dressed like a gimp

[(o)(o)]

I wasn't even commenting on his dress sense.

It's just pretty hard to be intimidating whilst wearing a pink romper suit.

Since getting his ID out it on YouTube it would seem that a certain Mr Jason Wells Facebook page has been getting quite a hammering! Www.facebook.com/brewcafe

And he does certainly post some interesting tweets!

That one looks adult-sized. I think he'll need a child-sized one.

This seems like a fair match..

Neck and neck their in the eloquence competition, mind.

Not sure there's any legal obligation for eloquence though I do think you're not really allowed to try and run cyclists off the road

To be honest I can't believe all he was done for was threatening behaviour. That's some pretty dangerous driving he hasn't been sanctioned for.

It's just par for the course in that area - hated driving and cycling around there because whichever of the two you did you'd get a twat using the other form of transport spoiling for a fight.

One thing I'm liking around here is that cycling is nothing special and as natural as walking - If it's really close you walk, if it's a bit further but not a massive distance away you jump on the bike. No shouting and wailing about who has the right to do what and where - just people getting from A to B. I think I've seen the *one* obligatory lycra-lout plowing through a park like he owns it but nothing more.

Bloody tourists!

It's not really though is it? It's a narrow road, there'll be some friction from people who don't feel it should be shared but they're the minority. I can pretty much guarantee that a coked up midget trying to ram someone off the road and blocking it in a coked up meltdown won't be happening today. Or tomorrow or for a good while.

Ooof, that sounds a lot like victim blaming in the context of this thread. In that original video do you think the rider is a lycra lout shouting and wailing about who has the right to do what and where?

Car-on-car dynamics in London are just as scary. People there are cunts even when there's no Lycra involved. It's just easier to shout at someone if they aren't behind a closed window.

In Cambridge they're middle-class cunts and just tut at cyclists and swerve and brake unnecessarily to make a point about how much cyclist and pedestrians are causing them such inconvenience.

I'm not a cyclist. Serious question, why aren't they using the cycle path?

Riding on a "side of the road" cycle path means, amongst other things, having to stop at every side road which crosses it. In theory, you are in the "inner lane" and vehicles wanting to turn across your path should give way, but what usually happens is "sorry mate, didn't see you" or "give way, you lycra clad cunt". Also not enough space to overtake, overhanging branches, twats parking across / on the cycle path, pedestrians, rollerskaters, pushchairs, etc.

Unless it's a dedicated cycle way entirely separate from the road system, (i.e. not a lane or footpath of a road), you're usually far safer on the road.
