You can be anything you want to be!

Ah well.

That would have been avoided if J wasn't going so slowly.

None of it's fine but "J wouldn't have it, a squid on a scooter overtaking a big bad biker on a big bad cruiser, so he matched the speed of the scooter and told him that it's dangerous what he's doing" doesn't exactly make J look responsible or sensible.
If he then goes and "quickly escalated to both of them riding really close, shouting at each other" then it should have come as no surprise that the scooter child tried to kick him.
Either accelerate away from the traffic lights and leave the scooter ride behind or if you don't want to accelerate then just let the scooter go in front and then leave him to do his thing.
Big bad cruiser rider got pwned at the traffic lights by some kid on a scooter and that's what's really funny about the whole story. Cruiser boy needs to learn how to accelerate faster than a scooter otherwise it will happen again and he'll probably try to get a fight again. |

CBF to quote on my phone.
He went on the red lights on the second set of lights, not the first one. The one that everyone else was prepared to stop for, but it's easy to miss when you're doing wheelies (willies as Carlos Sainz called them)
But yeah best way to go here would be just accelerate slowly and let the squiddie go. The road is 30, uphill and there's lights up the road so definitely no point to accelerate only to make a point that you're first in line.
Maybe rev a tiny bit

Nobody here caught it because you didn't actually quote that song.

Bollocks. You said this, which makes your second version of events a lie.
| Quote: | Lights changed and obviously the scooter went for it, overtook me (while I was still probably finding my biting point so no rush Laughing ) and then overtook J very close and very idiot-on-a-scooter-style. |
If he was parked in the keep clear zone, yet still behind you both, as he overtook you both, where exactly were you parked then? He also went after the lights changed according to your original story.
You're just a couple of knobs on cruisers who think they're above a scooter rider due to having leather tassles and a piss poor handling tractor of a bike.
If you're going to bullshit, at least edit your original post which tells a different story.

Getting back to the story...
It's been my observation that scooter riders (my wife refers to the younger ones as "The Burberry Bum Bandits") are second only to lycra-clad cyclists in their disrespect of the Highway Code.
Maybe something to do with the acceptability of constantly renewing a CBT certificate...
Cyclist - no training required = complete cock
Scooterist - CBT every 2 years = knobhead
Motorcyclist - gruelling 3-part exam = perfect gentleman (or lady)
The latter has show the iron will to succeed, Huzzah!
Dammit! Now I'm going to count how many scooters I see without L-plates every time I go out

Jeez those scooter apron things!
Who wouldn't want to stride into the office like a colossus in motorcycle leathers, remove your helmet and shake out your hair, Jason Momoa stylie, looking cool from the moment you step outside your front door (and safe to boot, in protective clothing!)
No, keeping the creases neat in your suit trousers is much more important
