I went down to Fourwentways to collect my Rainlegs and NSTN's RoadID band, and got abused for riding in secondary position on Lime Kiln rd cos a few cars had to wait for a bit. I thought I'd video'd it but the SD card filled up about 3 seconds before the incident.
I hate that road, I'd rather go round to addenbrookes and out on the main road.
I got the train to london, watched the rowing in trafalgar square, a couple of brisk laps of regents park on a potential new toy then a brisk, tailwind-assisted run home a longish way. 60 miles today 
First time, in living here for 7 years, that I've had actual abuse there, that I can recall. The problem was there was a large packet of cars created by there being a /really/ slow 4-way stop lights at the roadworks at the junction of Cherry Hinton Road and Cherry Hinton High St. The result was a lot of impatient drivers. However of the approx 8 cars in this packet, only one saw fit to act like a complete tosser.
The reason for the delay wasn't my riding position or speed. The first car in the queue was really hesitant about overtaking on the way up the hill and in my view could have overtaken easily, since it's pretty straight. They hesitated til we rounded the corner at the top of the hill, and then overtook when a car was coming the other way (but made it). They would have easily made it past on the climb.
I don't feel I should have to take long detours to avoid being hassled over a slight delay. I had already avoided Cherry Hinton High St adding a mile to my journey, going via Addenbrooke's adds probably about the same. And I am just as likely to be hassled going down Queen Edith's way because there is a shared use pavement. I've been hassled there more times than on Lime Kiln Hill.
