    Tonight I was cycling along Inverleith Row to the junction with Ferry Road.
    An Audi (well yes, a black one even) overtook me (safely) with a flourish that was pointless as the lights had already turned red.

    I was intending to get off and push road the corner (see other threads…) because I know the lights can take ages to change.

    But no, I found the Audi in the ASL quite close to the kerb, so decided to ‘stake my claim’.

    SO I squeezed into the small space between kerb and the car.

    Then I gestured to the driver that he was in ‘my’ space. But it was dark, inside the car too, so I wasn’t sure he’d noticed.

    THEN he reversed.

    Really don’t think that’s happened to me before!

    I had a car on Comiston Rd manoeuvre AWAY from the bike lane to let me by - don’t think that’s ever happened for me either!

    Restored slight faith in some drivers after a white knuckle ride down the A68 from far side of Soutra

    A68 is a nightmare off Soutra, I can only stay on it until the Turn for Humbie.
