I must be the only biker on the planet who's had a black cab, in London, do this: but then see me, and wave me past in a friendly fashion. (I'd seen him cut left, so was fully expecting the u-turn and had hung back).
Weirdly enough it was opposite the Savoy too - prime u-turn-take-out-the-bike territory. Maybe he'd reached his quota for that day?

Oddly enough, revisited the place for the first time in decades when I had a couple of uni friends up and we went visiting some of the old drinking haunts... Kings must have been the only college in the UK where the beer was cheaper in the pubs!!
