Remember even if the bus driver was in the wrong he's not allowed to reverse. I'm good at going backwards but I wouldn't have tried it on Station Road.

Without seeing the incident with my own eyes, it looks (from the photo) like it could have been created by two drivers being as stubborn as each other. 

You can tell by the 'Slow' markings exactly where that is on Station Road, and there's decent visibility from both directions. It could have become a non-issue if either had eased off to let the other pass, but instead you've ended up in a situation where the bus driver can't reverse by policy (and I agree I wouldn't even like to try it on Station Road, given the drop to the off-side!) and a biker who won't have a reverse gear.
