Wound me up a treat. 7 mile ride & obviously some roadwork but very little...on the road today which incidentally has horses at almost every address, when a stupid cow going too fast wound her window down & told us to "find somewhere to ride without a blind bend" oooh my blood boiled

we wear enough hi-vis to direct air traffic, ride single file & practically every other driver thanked us and smiled today

ffs there could be a jogger/cyclist/broken down car/pedestrian etc etc around the corner yet we are in the wrong?

Grrrrr.
 
Obviously just some nutter having a bad day and you took the brunt of it TChamp! It's a wonder we don't start seeing more cases of horse rage considering what riders have to put up with if they venture out on the roads. Just watching all the idiotic driving the mounted police have to put up back home makes me think some drivers have a sort of pathological hatred of anyone on horseback. It's not like we can't catch them either, plenty of times in the past I had someone blaze past only for me to meet them at the next junction. The temptation to give their wing mirror a damn good kicking and then vanish off up a bridlepath was so hard to resist, but I managed :D
 
It's because it's getting near christmas - I haven't ridden for weeks but on my drive to work I have seen some real stupidity - I would LOVE to be a traffic cop at the moment, I would bring in amazing revenue!
