Ride into work for Monday, 18 September

Muppet of the day was the passenger in the car who overtook me without signalling 20 metres from a red light on Lacewood and Willett, forcing me to jam on my brakes and skid off to the side. Said muppet wound down his window and screamed at me, "you shouldn't be going so fast!"; the driver, a female, appeared to be mortified and stared straight in front. I had a discussion with the passenger involving the finer points of overtaking (specifically, how signals should be used to indicate lane changes, and how I was doing 40km/hr going downhill which was well under the speed limit). I left him raging and shouting at me, as that seems the best revenge - the idea that the muppet is futilely screaming while I ride away around the stopped traffic somehow appeals to me.

A short ride in otherwise, as I was tired from the ride yesterday.
