As I cycled home tonight I got stuck on the cycle path behind 4 boys who wouldn't let me past. Well, one of them moved over to let me past but the rest didn't, so I asked them if they'd mind letting me past. One of them deliberately stopped right in front of me so I had to brake sharply, then said "I stopped to let you past and you didn't go." They kept that up, swerving in front of me and around me and cycling really slowly, for about a mile and a half, getting in the way of people coming from the opposite direction too. At one point I nearly got past them by getting round them on the grass, but not quite.
Then they all had to slow right down as a huge bloke came barrelling down towards them from the opposite direction and I got ahead of them, with just one of them keeping up with me, and then he had to go back as a cry of "Steeeeeve, come baaaack, I've craaaashed" could be heard from behind us. I said "good, I hope he's broken his neck" and went on my way.
There'll be 6 more weeks of this until the schools go back. I might keep my heavy chain to hand for belting the little shits round the head.
