Me too, it's a bit sick that they built their empire on the bikes and now resort to using rubbish African drivers who are such a danger to bikers in the capital. I treat them with extra suspicion when I come accross them when I'm filtering, I hit one of their mirrors in Lower Thames Street a few weeks ago, the twerp was doing 30mph and wasn't even holding his steering wheel, I could have sorta swerved a bit and missed, but didn't somehow :evil .
Also watch out for those people carrier taxi things with 'For private hire' written on a purple underground logo, same thing -cheap african drivers who probably paid someone to sit their test in Africa.
