Death Wish?!?!?!?

Do people who live in this town have a death wish? Over the past couple of days, I’ve had to swerve to avoid people who just – for the fun of it, it seems – step straight off the pavement, without looking and try to carry walking across the road.

Do they think that because I’m on a mountain bike I’m going to avoid them and not think about running them over?!?!?! Would they be doing this if I had an engine underneath me and 4 wheels instead of the two my bike has?

Weren’t they taught the Green Cross Code when they were children? Or are they so brainwashed by Pedestrianisation that they think they have priority and the traffic has to wait for them to decide what to do?!?!?!?

One of these days I won’t be in the mood to swerve, then we’ll see who has the last laugh then – do you score points for running people over I wonder?!
