Remember the crazy NY couriers (actually, that is on the page below)? Here's the London equivalent:

It's all good fun 'til someone looses a limb! Sad

The "Ice Ice" one is kinda interesting too. Smiling

im all for carving and weaving and bunny hopping *sorry roadies Eye-wink around traffic and through the streets, but i have to say, if your making cars slow down for you, and nearly hitting people if THEY dont swerve or move for you because of how your riding, your being a reckless idiot and a retard... and NO HELMETS on most of them? ...imho anyway..

Losers. Very selfish behaviour. When one of these losers gets run down and killed by a motorist, and that motorist has to live with this event for the rest of their lives, just how do you deal with that?

This kind of video is not going to change my opinion of road riding scum anytime soon. Scummers.

Not a very balanced comment there! I ride road, as I'm sure most do, much preferable to driving a car, and that sort of random spray doesn't to us any good. Sure they do some pretty stupid things wrt pedestrians (though a lot of those were due to pedestrians walking out where maybe they shouldn't have) and I'm not condoning it, but that doesn't make them/us all eejuts.

And it's a bloody great feeling weaving through traffic on a fixie and leaving the cars in your wake, as long as you're nice to pedestrians. Until you've actually ridden road regularly and experienced the complete disregard some motorised road users have then your outlook will undoubtedly be a little different to a roadie's. I will eat my helmet if the ratio of cars running over cyclists to cyclists jumping under a poor unfortunate cars wheels is any less than 100 to 1.
