wow. that is some impressively dumb riding.
sure, certainly fast but guaranteed to end up as just smudge on the pavement before very long.

I gotta say that kind of sh1t is EXACTLY why there is anger directed towards cyclists

If one of those idiots gets himself killed I s'pose the car driver will be at fault will he ??

The best bit was at the start. One of them didn't make out of the car park without stacking it :D

The TT at the weekend felt a bit like an alleycat race
, what with;
1. missing all the potholes
2. overtaking both cars and riders on the wrong side of the road
3. nearly running into the ditch at the bottom of Rusper hill
4. dodging a random welsh spectator hiding in the village :lol: sorry Huw :lol:

I'd struggle to resist knocking these to55ers off their bikes if they jumped a red while I was walking across. Most unsnooplike behaviour I know....

Grrrr :evil:

Lousy 2 up formation too and I didn't hear a single "car down" shout. shocking.

Courier chic my ar$e, a load of them weren't even riding fixed!

A lot of these guys have great bike handling skills but if they want to show them off they should get down to Herne Hill rather than make everyone's life worse on the roads. They must have some fetish where they just like to have abuse hurled at them all day.

After about 1:29 I can't believe the police car didn't take out two of them. Impressive driving skills from the boys in blue there. Less impressive law enforcement skills, mind.

To any non-cyclists out there, we don't all ride like these to$$ers. They and their ilk don't do us any favours.
