The British Way (Cycling Proficiency Test method)
1. Look over left shoulder to see what's coming up behind you.
2. Lift left arm to indicate the direction you wish to turn.
3a. If no one is behind you, turn to the left.
3b. If someone is behind you, slow down to let them pass, then turn left.
The Dutch Way (as practised on the streets of Amsterdam)
1. Get out your mobile phone.
2. Make a call.
3. Slow down and wobble to the right.
4. Turn sharply to the left, into the side of the cyclist who decided to overtake you when you slowed down and wobbled to the right.
5. Grunt "sorrie" in a tone that indicates that you are, in fact, not at all sorry.
6. Rinse and repeat.
Yeah, so I'm not comparing like with like. But I do it the British way and it's my damn blog!
