Grrrrr...Those Pesky Cyclists

This pesky cyclist added an extra 7 minutes to my journey to work today. Fuming if your late and those crucial minutes mean you're at your desk for 9am on the dot!

I'm all for Go Green, Friends of the Earth, and less pollutant forms of commuting, yadda...yadda..yadda. This time it was only one cyclist. Some mornings it's a full on Tour de London! Grrrrrrrrrrr

I think there needs to be a more relaxed attitude to work. A friend of mine deals with employee retention and says that emploers who are more liberal (not too liberal though) have a better chance keeping good people. Go all gustapo on people and they'll walk!

theres plenty of space there for the bus to overtake. plus, the buses and other cars probably added 7 minutes to the cyclists journey too. the thing that added most to your journey would be the other cars and buses. I cycle everyday and I am faster than any of the other traffic over about 7 miles of cycling - even at a relatively traffic free time.
