I work in the City
And a favourite past time of mine is to see if once a week I can get a cyclist off their bike :-)
The look on their little faces as they speed through a red light, only to be suddenly thrown off course by an angry pedestrian crossing the road. It's wonderful. I don't even have to go looking for them. The twunts are everywhere!

I've been a few centimetres from murder.
one of these days I won't relent at the last second and that cyclist coming towards me on the pavement will be under the bus on the road.

Do it. Do it. Do it.
I've had a fair few go sliding down the road on their faces.
The cycle courier that grabbed my hair when I bollocked him for nearly running me down on a crossing ended up with more than one broken bone.
The trick is to walk off as if you barely noticed it happen...

^What she said^
One pulled me to a halt for having the audacity to cross a Pedestrian Crossing on a green man.

"HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A CYCLIST DIE?!" he screamed.

"No" I responded.

"WELL I HAVE - IT'S NOT NICE!" he screamed.

I enquired if his concern for his safety was the reason why he wasn't wearing a helmet, and was jumping red lights.

"CUUUUUUUUUNT!" he screamed.

I admire your restraint
I'd have had a fist going up through his chin if I'd encountered that reaction.
I'm normally quite placid, but when someone takes the piss like this, I just see red. It's why I kick cars that jump zebra crossings while I'm on them.
One day I'm gonna get caught thumping a cyclist - but I've been lucky so far.
