How is that: no matter what time I head home these days (via Snake Pass, mosque and Malaysian railway tracks), I always encounter two cyclists coming the other direction? And not the well-meaning, green-minded, look-out-for-pedestrians type; nor the dedicated sports and outdoor pursuit sort, but apparently gruff maniacs who seem to be oblivious to anything in their way.
The prospect of another life-threatening encounter with these speed demons who swoop out of the dark has reminded me to type a frequent mental note-to-self, viz.: Learn how to say "GET A LIGHT" and "USE A BELL" in their language. It does not appear to have left an impression when I've uttered it in English and in anger.
I assume these dark riders have come from The People's Republic of China. Your suggestions (with foolproof pronunciation) are most welcome in the comments section below.
