As I was spinning along without a care in the world I heard an awful blaring sound behind which was issuing from the mobile phone of a couple of passing riders. I was so shocked with this noise pollution that I was tempted to chase them down to give them a piece of my mind but thought that my beating the man to a pulp for disturbing my tranquillity might upset his adoring female partner; so let them be.

What is the world coming to?
Coming up east chevin road, up the hill. People overtake you into traffic coming down and overtake you on crests and bends. Basically it's your legs that their car hits when a van coming the other way shunts them towards you.
