Most cyclists are wankers who couldn't give a fuck what the traffic laws are. Especially ones who dress in Lycra/high viss and hipster twats who ride single speed bikes in tight jeans and boat shoes.
Mountain bikers are ok though.
However I would ride down a one way street because I can.

the kind of motorist that gets angry at a cyclist is the kind of motorist that shouldn't be on the road in the first place.

I like to cycle, and abiding by road laws would be my last concern. Staying off the road and away from cars is my first priority

Whats the cycle paths like? some paths that share part of the road are full of shit and do not get cleaned properly, so tend to cycle in the road to keep punctures/etc at bay
Path isn't too bad, not 100% but no hardcore debris there, no shrapnel.

imo they shouldn't be on the road at all.
when you see them fly through red lights and ride side be side taking up the road , then when you go pass close or blow you horn to let them know your coming or about to pass you get a load of abuse or the V sign.
im not saying there all like this but the ones round here think they have right of way always.

Simple solutions: don't pass close and don't blast your horn.

wudnt have to pass close if they were single file. horn is warning them that im coming as very often there sailing about in the road.
at the end of the day they shudnt be there. they dont pay road tax so why shud they be able to ride on the road?

Are you actually being serious?? Cyclists don't pay road tax because they are zero emissions as that's pretty much what road tax is based on these days does this mean I cant use my citreon c1 on the road because I don't pay road tax on that as its a low emission car fucking grow up

Obviously you're aware that the Vehicle Excise Duty that you pay is tax for owning a vehicle, the maintenance and upkeep of the roads comes out of local/national taxation.

The last cyclist I spotted riding the wrong way down a one way street, ended up wearing quite a lot of the front, side and top of my Peugeot as a facial and dental prosthesis.
