# i cycled for ages in london
while at college there, i only ever had one incident of a car being idiotic.

i also had a ticket from a police man for standing on my pedal and scooting my bike along the pavement outside liverpool street station.

the cunt.

# I get to cycle across Archway junction
which has to be about the most dangerous bit of road for a cyclist within the M25, but I find as long as you've got a sense of awareness and you signal clearly to the other traffic, even white vans will let you through when you need to change lanes.

You were well unlucky to get a cycling ticket though, that's almost unheard of. My missus got stopped by a copper for jumping a red light a while back, but she just cried at him until he let her off

# They're busting cyclists quite a lot in central, because cyclists are a bunch of absolute wankers.
I actually heard one protesting at a copper the other day "Oh come on it's not like it's a real crime, is it?!" the twat.

# i paid the fine
and wrote a letter of complaint to his commanding officer stating that the ticket clearly indicated that it was a motoring vehicle ticket and that i thought the officers actions were heavy handed and over the top and lodged an official complaint against the officer.

i never did get the fine back, but hopefully pissed fo the officer and any promotion that he may have been up for.

# As long as it stopped you cycling on a pedestrian area, or jumping red lights, then it's OK.
What the name of the type of ticket was is irrelevent.
