the number of times i've had a driver overtake me when there's barely any room and i've had to swerve a little in a panic is disgraceful.

I had some hateful bitch do this the other day, i was going round a large roundabout going straight over and she came round the inside of me to the same exit nearly wiping me out, self centred banana split.

Having your life threatened by poor, myopic, selfish drivers really will bring out the worst in a person.

Appears that this particular cyclist is a known shithead.

The guy comes on and starts arguing with people who don't agree with him. What a sad act. :lol:

The ones around me have awful surfaces or are in side if the road with loads of drains and out holes so I have to avoid them unless I want bust wheels.

In London we now have the "Cycle Super Highway" which basically involves taking away some of the car space, enduring even worse traffic while they are carrying out the works and it seems a gooseberry fool attitude form cyclists when you point out they should use it. "Oh but I don't have to"

In some parts, 2 lanes are now 1 narrow so that when a truck is in traffic, the lane is not wide enough for motorbikes to get past.

Depends, because not all the CS routes are of the same quality. Currently I'll leave one early because it doesn't go where I want it to or because I know there's a gooseberry fool bit coming up.

What a muppet! Also driving an uninsured car too! One for the police!

His aggressive attitude seemed to go away when he realised everything he did had been recorded!

Terrible driving. What the hell was he thinking?

Nice to see the public sticking up for each other, warms the cockles.

Great video, I liked the fact that he appeared to be a bit cross eyed as well, probably why he struggled to find the baseball bat at first.

Anybody know whereabouts this happened?

Not siding with the driver here, because that was a seriously banana split manoeuvre, and reaching for the baseball bat afterwards pushed the cunt-level off the scale, but I can't help but feel the cyclist could have avoided the hazard there if he'd kept his cool.

Avenue road, near Regents Park NW1/3 (Can't remember which as postcodes switch at that road) in London.

I don't think the cyclist did anything wrong there what so ever, he didn't exactly lose his cool.

he didn't exactly lose his cool.

He was screaming and kicking the guy's car. What was that supposed to achieve?

He remained in control of his bicycle throughout and was able to cleanly dismount and put it on the ground. He was going slower than the car and has a smaller turning circle, so he probably could have avoided contact entirely if he didn't get angry or affronted at the idiot in the car. I'm not saying he did anything wrong, just that he made a meal of being wronged.

I particularly liked the bit where he forgot to put the handbrake on
