Had it twice on Saturday and once the previouse Sunday, each time it was car drivers overtaking cyclists. Saturday was cars ovetaking on blind bends. The previous Sunday was a straight bit of road coming out of a village 30 limit, I'd slowed down but she still managed to cut both me and the cyclists up and she got a hand signal from both of us :roll:
