    Reblogged this on The Drippy Lube and Dirty Skid Mark Emporium. and commented:
    A very real threat to all road cyclists and commuters. I think we can all tell a story about a near miss or three. Learning to negotiate lorries on the road is a fundamental must for cycle safety.

      Thanks Tony, my advice is to just hold back if you see a lorry up ahead. Keep another vehicles distance between you if possible, never undertake and if you have to overtake wait until you are on a section of road with no left turnings and clear on coming traffic.
