My ride home includes a cycle lane crossing of a major road junction.
The cyle lane's parallel to a bus lane and a minor road.
The junction's marked with yellow cross-hatching to tell the motons to
stay off it until there's space for them to get off again, but unless I
stay at work until 6:30 or later it's usually blocked by a tinnie thing.
And it's a pain to get round them.
A bus company bloke says they do it on purpose because they're so
mean-minded: they're going nowhere so they won't let his bus and its
passengers go anywhere. Or me and my bike.
Knocking on their tinnies and speaking to them produces a range of
bizarre defensive behaviour, and probably does deter them from doing it
again, but it's unrewarding.
Has anyone any suggestions for getting some fun out them? I want a
laugh to make up for my frustration, and I don't mind if they think I'm
laughing at them.

Bicycle helmets are really a bit of a scam.
They make most cyclists slightly less safe but there's money in selling them.
