Breathe In !

When discussing the fact I cycle from Rangiora to Christchurch with people invariably they ask what it's like cycling on the Old Waimakariri Bridge.

Overall I feel safer on the bridge than on the open road as the vast majority of motorists are very considerate.

However you always get one to break that bubble, and here are the photos to prove it !

I was 3/4 the way across when this motorist passed me in the face of oncoming traffic, for him to then pull into the garage not 100 metres past the end of the bridge. He just couldn't wait the extra 4-5 seconds for the cars to pass or for me to cycle off the bridge before overtaking me!
