LOL at some of the comments

What a bunch of selfish, irresponsible cockwombles. People like that give all cyclists a bad name. I hope someone sticks an umbrella in their spokes.

if one of those c**** smashed into me when I was crossing the road they'd get a smack in the fuckin chop. lol :

Cockwombles. LMFAO

Can't get it at work, but might have seen it b4. If it's the one I'm thinking of, admire their guts and it takes some skill to pull some of that stuff off. But particularly the bit where they whistle pedestrians out the way, would be tempted to knock one of the fuckers off.

Think some cyclists cos they tend to be on the shitty end of the stick vesus traffic end up actiing same way towards pedestrians.

Remember now the one I'm thinking about is the London Calling Alley Cat or somesuch. They do pretty much the same shit but in the middle of the night when the streets are full of peeps on the piss.

I know we have a few cyclists on here, but to be fair, the people in that video were fucking stupid and fully deserved the abuse they got.

Alot of cyclists I see on the road really do seem to be pretty unpredictable though, the amount of cyclists who turn suddenly, without looking, was one of the most suprising things I found when I first started to drive.

Cyclists are one of the worst hazards for me on my motorbike because they tend to appear randomly without any noise, lights or warning at all and they seem to go for the same parts of the road I'm riding it.

All that said, you could probably say exactly the same thing about how cage drivers think about me :) so I guess it swings in roundabouts.

Agreed mate. You also get some outrageously dangerous scooter riders as well. Usually the kids who've just passed their CBT and go out wearing shorts and helmet lifted up on their forehead. I think builders lorries are the worst - those flat bed trucks with the tailgates. They don't give a shit about anyone else on the road except themselves.

had some police officer stop me the other day cos i ride on the paths and road. The parts where i ride on the pavement it's usually too dangerous for bikes, especially a bmx. He told me it's usually a £30 fine for being caught riding on the paths, to which i just said well i'd rather ride on the path here than be dead. In the end he let me off.

preferably i would like to see inner city of Copenhagen (and other major cities) become car-free. only being able to cycle or use public transport would be nice (and alot less noisy!)
