Years and years ago I was a courier in central LondonSo got to see people like John Snow and Boris Johnson on a regular basis out and about on their bikes. John Snow's socks are legendary btw as can be sometimes glimpsed at when he's reading the news.
Anyway, one time I was waiting at the lights on Shaftsbury Avenue behind Boris, and when the lights changed I had to whine, "Come on Boris." It came out with such familiarity it quite startled the bloke, who apologetically replied "No, after you!" And got out of my way. I think he was a little surprised a shaven headed courier knew who he was, or something
