New and Improved
Just a quick note to say the site’s been expanded at http://101wankers.com with a comments section, and NOW a map you can contribute to under “Worldwide Wankers”. I’ll update here as well, but do have a look.
Dawn.

WatchWanker #8
Back on my bike! And on one of my first outings I met one of those stalwarts of the road: the Taxi-Driver. I was turning into a junction box, to turn right, you know, as the Highway Code says I should. Whilst on the Junction Box, he decided he would start moving across my path, which he shouldn’t have done. How would he react to this? He stopped in my path and said “What the fuck do you...
Public Service Announcement
As you may have noticed, there have been far fewer wankers recently due to the biggest wanker of all stealing my bike. If you need your fix of wankers, I’d suggest reading the comments on this post, or reading one of these two articles on the subject. I can’t thank people enough for all of the kind comments, emails and messages sent over the past week: I will reply to them all, once I...
Wanker #7
Wanker #7 is the biggest wanker of all: someone stole my bike :( From the bike stands outside Beckton Asda.
Here is a poster I made: feel free to print it out and hang it where you like. Especially if you live in Brick Lane.
I’m a bit cut up about it, mainly because my bike was properly old: it was 5 years older than me, and snagged for a fiver off eBay (from a recognised seller, I...
Wanker #6
Our latest wanker was not a motorist. A rarity so far in this blog, but not in real life. Cycling down a quiet road in Beckton, I clocked a group of four teenage boys. They clocked me too. I don’t pretend to understand the mind of a teenage boy, never having been one, but it seems that whenever a group of boys spot a female cyclist, like Pavlov’s dog they have no choice but to...
Wankers #4 & #5
Wanker #4 was encountered yesterday evening when my chain helpfully fell off just outside the Amersham Arms (lovely pub, you should go there). After hearing the familiar crunch, I hopped onto the pavement, and flipped my bike over to fix it. 12 male cyclists stopped to ask if I needed help in about 6 minutes. One male motorist, however, shouted “Ha ha! You fucking cyclist twat!” What a...
Wankers #2 & #3
This morning’s first wanker was in New Cross. He saw me cycling down New Cross Road, as he was waiting to turn onto the same road. Rather than wait until the road was clear, he nudged the front of his car into the road, far enough to stop me, but not far enough to trouble the motorists alongside me. As I was forced to stop next to his window, he turned and shouted “Know your place,...
Wanker #1
Our first wanker was angry that a bicycle was on the road. He hit his horn whilst behind me, whilst I was waiting in the cycle box at the traffic lights. As he turned at the junction alongside me, he continued to use his horn. At the next traffic lights, he rolled his window down to shout “You stupid fucking slut, get off the road and onto the pavement, you stupid bitch”. He was in his...
