To those who hate cyclists filtering....

[TheFinal88]

I don't care what you or the fucking highway code says, filtering is dangerous.

[ortan191]

nice!, probably cuts like 30mins off.

[SilveradoTrucker777]

I like the part where I imagined him getting decapitated on the road in front of his family.

[Swaytan]

I ride motorbikes, drive cars & buses. I personally don't get cycling, it doesn't appeal to me, but that's ok, I don't hold anything against people doing so. I think lane splitting/filtering for cyclists is fine. Nobody got hurt in that video, all good. What annoys me are cyclists who hold up the flow of traffic when it would be otherwise moving freely. I can't count the amount of times I've been stuck behind a cyclist in a bus lane when trying to get a bus full of people to work.

[globerator]

great, ball of stell.

[chonypark]

Man where I live there are bike paths everywhere

[NicThatRussianGuy]

This is when I yell,

"RIDE BIKES MOTHERFUCKERS!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!"

[Tomakak]

This is why I ride a motorcycle. I can filter through traffic, and not be thought of as a faggot for riding a bicycle.

[MazzaFiveOneFour]

@Tomakak For the 1400$ per year of plates, 2000$ of insurance and the risk of danger I'd rather be called a faggot and ride a bicycle.

[Tomakak]

@MazzaFiveOneFour Good for you, faggot.

[MrHeyfuckoff]

1:50 is that a car crash,a gangbang between the cars or a fucked up traffic jam?

[ynotnilknarf39]

Nice one 289 bad boys you managed to knock off there. This reminds me of my car commuter days in London (50 miles each way wasn't do-able..lol)

[shinraninja]

bit of traffic there

[adrenalinjunky31]

This is so funny. Do any of the people commenting as drivers ever stop to think 'Is my journey necessary?' and 'Could it be as easy to go by bike?'

The cars in the vid (270 + before I lost count) must think driving and clogging roads is acceptable.

[saucecakes]

Every time I get passed by a cyclist in traffic, I always get this weird feeling of wishing I was cycling right now.

[tgkohn]

I wonder why the cyclist is riding this road. So many more dangers than just fumes: cars turning or changing lanes without signaling, cross traffic at the open intersections, the cyclist making lane changes without adequate signals and preparation, not to mention the (low likelihood, but possible) opportunity of being doored.

Aren't bikeways nearby? The auto traffic and congestion scare me!

[cabdav]

@tgkohn I'll wager that he's riding that road to get where he's going. I'll also bet that if there ARE cycle routes, they'll be going nowhere near where he needs to be.

[shf58]

Who says cyclists shouldn't filter anyway? I've driven a car for 3 years now and I don't see what's wrong with it. Hell, isn't avoiding traffic the main point of getting a bike in the first place?

[excrutiated]

10 times as far in a fraction of the time for free. if i lived in a busy city like that , id do the same.

[OnlyForTheBanter]

Blue Volvo S40 at 0:43 - if all motorists were like him, the roads would be a much nicer place to be.

[MrHeyfuckoff]

@OnlyForTheBanter why he just tapped the brakes a few times and move closer to the car infront?

[Universal1Cadete]

@OnlyForTheBanter I dont get it xD

[siralanlordsugar]

Most of these whiners will need to think how many of their life will involve sitting in a car, behind a office desk, in a pub with a pint, then at home they spend the rest of their hours sitting behind a TV screen watching their TV/playing with their Xbox. Their only hope of keeping fit is failing to last beyond their 3mths gym contract and standing up is their fag break

By the time they reach 60, they will all be obese & envy cyclist with anti-cyclist messages here

[SilentDarkness2332]

nice 6 and a half minutes of traffic _-'

[philgrinspoon]

Lol drivers want the same rules to apply to cyclists on the road, yet they feel they have more of a right to be on the road. If only ppl didn't turn into an impatient prik every time they got behind the wheel

[SporeBloopers]

When Cars are stuck in a traffic jam, cyclists just ride through >:D

[raygeezer]

quick question: what camera do you use, or is there one that you would particularly recommend?

[EdinburghCoachworks]

If you cycle you take the risk of being a statistic, unlike a car you don't take a test nor do you pay to be on the road. Unfortunately not enough of you follow the highway code, which you should! Cars have to, so should you!

[Oatmealism]

Like a Boss

[PRus27]

this is why bikes > cars

[kemsone]

gay

[pickle472]

i used to love doing that! dont get why people think you should just sit at the back with all the traffic. now i am part of the traffic but give extra room to bikes :D

[RTSchofield]

I spent 6 minutes sitting there hypnotised and drooling like a fucking invalid waiting for him to be knocked off his bike or run over or something. Waste of bloody time.

[nachof248]

chistoso el video... pero no deja de ser peligroso, yo que vos tomo otra calle, menos transitada.. y viajo mucho mas tranquilo cada dia. Al fin y al cabo es para eso que sirve la bici ;)

[kayser79pr]

some body open the door nock this guy out he is looking for hell

[kayser79pr]

please some one opend the door to nock him or how out use the side not the street doum ass

[kayser79pr]

what and idiot use the walk up not the street you dum ass

[zwitsalleken]

did'nt see anything wrong here, eventough i don't agree with all of your posts, i do think that you provoke it sometimes. but, in this, you were in the right, nothing wrong with it...

[ChrischanJunk]

The exhaust fumes from the cars are more toxic than smoking cigarettes.

[ksbnr1]

@ChrischanJunk No shit sherlock.

[magnatom]

@ChrischanJunk I'd be interested to see your reference for this.

[ryzlaptop]

@magnatom You won't die if you are sitting in the garage smoking a cigarette, I can't say the same for sitting in the garage with the car running....

[tank2g2]

@magnatom Carbon Monoxide poisoning 

[nachof248]

@tank2g2 And you don't suffer it on your car because......

[tank2g2]

@nachof248 because the gas doesn't go through a closed window

[puretroubleman]

@magnatom isn't it obvious? for one thing the CO (carbon monoxide) levels are much higher. that in itself is much more dangerous.

[nachof248]

@puretroubleman jajajajajaja no te la crees ni vos esa xDD

que aire te pensas que respiras adentro del auto?? o te pensas que tenes un tanque de oxigeno aparte del tanque de nafta??¿¿

pd: el CO se supone deberia ser minimo o ninguno contanta norma europea para emisiones, o es todo un curro?¿

[puretroubleman]

@nachof248 what the hell are you on about? 

[nachof248]

@puretroubleman Simple, this way is allways a dangerous travel. It only takes one door or one unanticipated move to trhow him down.

Take another street to travel, avoiding motortrafic... and live in peace. That's what bicicles are abaut, am I wrong?¿

[puretroubleman]

@nachof248 I ride a scooter I know the dangerous cyclists face.



[mclamby]

@magnatom i put this way. you sit in your garage with the car running and ill sit in mine and chain-smoking and see who last longest.

im not botherd by riding thru fumes (if i was id buy a mask) its more the idea ofa public smokingban when its the 50 cars buzzing round the ring road not the odd smoker on the high street thats the problem.

If people got on their bikes insted of giving poor excuses about fumes everyone would be better off. not that you need to be told tha

[mclamby]

@mclamby in summery

- smoking tobacco: bad for you

- exhaust emissions: worse for everyone

- cycling leads to cleaner air

- hiding behind aircon and a windscreen doesn't

[StikManJones]

@magnatom carbon monoxide....

[HOaliyartMO]

@magnatom So you're a fag who rides his bike through cars and you're a bitch, what was the point of the video?

[travers114]

@magnatom I don't think it's worse than being a habitual smoker, but the amount of soot cyclists breathe in, especially in London, is pretty gross. Do some googling, you'll find you might just want a filter mask to wear while you bike.

[Ayrshore]

@magnatom I think he just made it up. The MOT emissions tests say he's 100% wrong.

[mitsucanter247365]

@ChrischanJunk not in all instances, Since 1992 cars have been fitted with catalytic coverters, which turn harmful emmisiions into less harmful products, the majority of exhaust fumes is water, suicidal people will struggle with the old hose pipe through the window.

[AnimeNex]

@ChrischanJunk if that was true, more people would have cancer because of car exhaust which you never hear about at all. Considering the amount of cars on the road in so many countries.

[hillous]

@ChrischanJunk The carbon monoxide gases disperse into the air instantaneously; we all must breathe it in. The difference in density as inhaled by a cyclist riding through traffic, or a pedestrian walking alongside traffic, or a motorist sitting in traffic, is negligible.

[apache1234657]

@ChrischanJunk nope catalytic converters means they are not

[CompactJam]

@ChrischanJunk So what? You can catch cancer off the internet and facebook induces hair loss.

[mechanismtrance]

@ChrischanJunk maybe, but you don't put your mouth around a tailpipe and suck them down.

[aletseva]

@ChrischanJunk so is your cellphone

[princetran]

Is this cyclist dead yet?

[ksbnr1]

@leapoffaith20 Once again, people aren't replying to the right people. what you've actually done is reply to me replying to someone who thought I said something, when in actual fact I was replying to someone else.

[leapoffaith20]

@ksbnr1 Okies, sorry

[zwitsalleken]

@ksbnr1 to keep it simple ;-))

[cardiffkiller]

i wish someone would of pulled out and killed you another cyclist down.

[leapoffaith20]

@cardiffkiller Do you know what happens when someone tries to do that to me? I throw a little shard of spark plug ceramic at their windscreen. When the edges hit tempered glass it shatters completely. That's about £300 pounds of their money down the drain because they acted like a cunt.

You know the best bit? In traffic like this there's now way in hell they'd be able to catch me.

[cardiffkiller]

@leapoffaith20 funny shit right there, what if it was a accident though then your just as bad as all the dicks on the road.

[leapoffaith20]

@cardiffkiller Accident in stationary traffic? You really are a moron aren't you?

[mitsucanter247365]

@leapoffaith20 but youd look like a cunt trying to shatter a laminated windscreen, oh wait, they are laminated.

[leapoffaith20]

@mitsucanter247365 You're saying it wouldn't work?

Try this: watch?v=6RXBxeXU3sM&feature=re­lated

[mitsucanter247365]

@leapoffaith20 no, its more difficult to shatter a laminated screen rather than a tempered screen.

[mitsucanter247365]

@leapoffaith20 Just watched your linked vid, thats a REAR screen, there not laminated, there tempered.

[magnatom]

@cardiffkiller Is that what you would do?

[BluntToy]

see the reason cyclists are hated in australia, is because we have these things called bike lanes. but do they stay in their lane? no, of course they go into the lane made for cars and dont stay in their own lane. should bikes pay registration for riding in the middle of the road made for cars? maybe

[magnatom]

@BluntToy See the reason drivers are hated in the UK, is because we have these things called motorways. but do they stay on the motorway? no, of course they go into the road made for all road users and don't give space to other users. They should pay more tax towards the upkeep of the roads than they do as they create all of the damage, yet cyclists on average pay more tax. Maybe.

[BluntToy]

@magnatom no need to be a dick about it, just saying what happens.

[magnatom]

@BluntToy If you think I am being a dick by just playing your logic back at you, what does that say about your original comment?

[BluntToy]

@magnatom

and when its a single bike its not that bad, but when the whole racing people ride and you have 30 people taking up half the road because everyone is riding on the race bikes in the skin tight clothes and there's no room to go around them for 10km it gets annoying

[magnatom]

@BluntToy So if 30 of the cars in the video were replaced with 30 cyclists, do you think the cars in the video would get to work quicker or slower?

[BluntToy]

@magnatom in the part of australia i live in we dont really have many traffic jams. in the to and from the city it can be bad at rush hour, but im talking about free flowing traffic. and my comment before wasnt trying to be a dick its just that alot of people use other comment set outs (???) when trying to be dicks in flame wars and soo on, so thats why i thought you sounded a bit like one. (sorry)

[GroovinFunk]

Someone should have door-checked his entitled ass.

[robin48gx]

Yes I looked up the law on this too. I only have to walk 100m out of a 12000m bike journey though.

[29223gilbert]

so this is a video about a guy on a bike going through traffic... well to start this guy is smarter than most of these drivers, why? he is not stuck in traffic, then he is not wasting gas, also he is one less driver to worry about...

every one who dislike this video are douche bags... jajajajajajaja

[KenHoke]

Dick.

[Huckerby2k9]

well thats 6 and a half minutes of my life im not getting back

[lsbrother]

glad I don't have to do that every day - cycling or driving!

[brandeezy108]

i love doing this.

[09bikerman1]

Nice filtering, would be good to shoulder check every now and then for motorcycles but apart from that you ride very well :)

[robin48gx]

@simondunsby thats true, it has not been road tax since 1933. its simply a licencing tax, like the old dog license used to be.

[robin48gx]

no problem at all. I like going to work on my bicycle.

[wethebeast88]

look at me i pay no road tax but behave like i own the road..fuck all you fag cyclists get a real vehicle

[ABlindFellow]

@wethebeast88 Idiot... 

[stevefm]

@wethebeast88 Is he behaving like he owns the road? I can't see that atall. Why so angry at a guy on a bike harming no-one? Are you on medication?

[brandeezy108]

@wethebeast88 most of them do have real vehicles you moron. why would they use it in traffic? your funny.

[nightfox1965]

yahoo go for it lad ...........

[rudidower]

I bet that was really satisfying. In a smug kind of way : ) I know i'd enjoy it, though i'd be just waiting for some p'ed off driver to stick their arm out or open a door on me out of spite.

[BrandonWatson19]

I don't know what it is, but watching you filter through the rush hour traffic seems...relaxing.

[C93JaYmo]

@BrandonWatson19 I disagree.. Watching him push through traffic this easily makes me want to punch a cyclist. In the face. With a chair.

[magnatom]

@C93JaYmo Is that a direct threat?

[dinnnnnga]

your gona die soon if you ride like this

[DenverPL]

@magnatom i really like how in your video titled "Hit by a Door (AF51RVA)" you complain how the car was so close to you when he passed you but now you are even closer to these cars (and difference in speed is bigger) but it's totally ok and you're so proud of yourself...

[ChicanoX3Irish]

Why not just ride on the apparently vacant sidewalk?

[ksbnr1]

@ChicanoX3Irish Because that's actually illegal, at least here in the UK.

[samhoward9]

@ksbnr1 how is it illegal it is not illegal motorbikes do it although its illegal in the usa duh

[leapoffaith20]

@ksbnr1 Cos in the UK it's illegal ,though on fast out of town, roads the police probably wont do anything about it, in town though its a big no no.

[tinty010]

@ksbnr1 filtering is legal mate.

[ksbnr1]

@tinty010 You clearly didn't read what I replied to. ChicanoX3Irish said "Why not just ride on the apparently vacant sidewalk"

[KZWolf]

2:03 BMW 850 :)

[TECHBOYZ123]

why dont u use the sidewalk??

[mjiow]

Glasgow by anychance?? got wayy too excited when i recognised number plate prefixes hahaha!

[headlessprettyboy]

Simply illegal driving of a bicycle. I bike commute every day, and this type of opportunistic daredevilling is what makes car drivers treat me so poorly. It'll catch up to him some day. Hopefully, my good behavior will offset his bad behavior, and the drivers will treat me fairly, not as they would this menace.

[blandishblaze]

ur gay, do u wear 1 of those faggy helmuts n tights cause ya think ur lance armstrong, haha 1 day ull get smoked then u can b a fail video on you tube homo, streets r 4 cars ya little queer.

[7huys]

@blandishblaze I ride a motorbike, and i do this all the time, say suttin yu keyboard warrior..

[m00nshine2004]

I don't get it. He's not slowing you down so why would car drivers complain?

[leapoffaith20]

@m00nshine2004 Jealously, they're stuck in traffic so they thing every else should be stuck in there too. Motorcyclists get the same shit.

[ArcAngelRebuke]

Wow, still cycling? All that puffin' and panting through the traffic. All that deep breathing. Deep, deep into yu'r lungs! ALL that Cadmium, Benzine, small particulate diesel residue (and surprisingly still quite a lot of lead). All carsonagenic. Go for it, go on, really knock yu'r self out big boy, KNOCK yu'r self out!

[outerspaceonline]

@ArcAngelRebuke Luckily none of it gets to you inside a car. And you get all that exercise hitting the gas and pumping those brakes.

Okay, okay... you're right. Cyclists breathe a lot more of the bad stuff in because they're breathing more. At least they are not clogging up the road with huge metal boxes or contributing to your laundry list of toxic particles.

Haters gonna hate!

[Hraggleblarg]

@ArcAngelRebuke This makes me want to cycle with a respirator on. Like I don't have enough ridiculous gear on already.

[CNCmachiningisfun]

I think city cyclists are pretty courageous to travel like this in heavy traffic.

All it takes is one cager to screw up and yer in for some serious hurtin'.

When I see a cyclist approaching my car, I give 'em room. It's the right thing 2 do :).

[RocketScientist79]

@CNCmachiningisfun If only everybody round here was as polite and courteous as your good self! :-) we'd all get along just fine.

[Dragonsayian]

I love cycling too and passsing stuck city traffic and these drivers should be happier with one less car on the road as long your pretty much sticking to the rules .

[adamtermote]

I'm a cyclist, but when there's a cycle lane just fucking use it.

[TimpBizkit]

Fair enough if those cars are on long journeys from town to town but if they're just going 2 miles up the road without much stuff they may as well bike!

[TimpBizkit]

IF YOU'RE PISSED AT TRAFFIC JAMS RIDE A DAMN BICYCLE!!

[Booya9272]

Oooohhhh yes, I love filtering, I jerk off to it everyday in my bright yellow lycra bike suit. LOL

[montyzoomer1000]

Looks bloody dangerous to me, only want's some idiot to open a door. Thank goodness I dont live in a city, come to think of it it. Why would anyone want to live like that?

[TheElysianTerror]

Too bad you didn't have a barbie bike and a pink horn that you could honk to troll all those people. :s

[ronniejuliette]

i hope that he dies in traffic LOL

[yard1sale1dale]

Why do cagers always want people to pay MORE TAXES. People pay WAY TOO MUCH taxes already, and what do they get for it? Not enough! Also, every time you see a bike MOVING in traffic, you should be a little happier. He could be in 1 more car, ahead of you, waiting for the gridlock to break up, and 1 more car ahead of you getting to your home or work, one more car idling and wasting fuel, one more car clogging up one more lane on one more road. Be happy about one more bike!

[narkpanda]

I don't have a problem with cyclist's, nor them filtering, as i do it on my motorbike. What i do have a problem with is cyclist's who believe they are equal to, or have more rights than a motor-vehicle, cyclists who think it's ok to block traffic, and racers to ride two/three abreast on rural roads causing tail-backs, cyclist's who act like little "narks" with their POV cams, & my biggest problem is cyclists who prefer NOT to use the cycle paths that the state has spent millions of £'s on.

[dirtysanchezproducti]

the the asshole who sees a cyclist doing this and moves my car closer to the middle of the lane to block them

[grapes008]

if that were the case, they should increase the charge, i 125cc motorcycle only pays around £15 tax a year, maybe that not worth doing either, mind you its probebly not worth scraping the cyclist how jumped the light, used a junction incorectly etc etc off the road they have just been splttered all over.

[RocketScientist79]

@grapes008 Hence why there are those of us who do have advanced driving licences, and do know the highway code get pee'd off too at those who do Red Light Jump in whatever cehicle they drive/ride etc.

We don't pay tax as a factor of road damage weight (Single axle weight to the power of four) multiplied by a factor of emissions. Since a cylist does not emit - well apart from the odd fart or two extra we are exempt, just like electric cars are.

[grapes008]

@RocketScientist79 i take it dont breath then, and also disagree with electric car being free of road tax, over there life time they cause more polution than most would think. its simple imho, pay or get of the road

[RocketScientist79]

@grapes008 Yes well have to breathe, especially those of us who do indeed dare to be out there, on two wheels rather than sat on our fat backsides in single occupant cars.

I'll pay Vehicle Excise Duty when the government mandates that we have to, Until then the argument is pointless. If want to change the law then run for office.

[grapes008]

@RocketScientist79 good job i dont own a car then isnt it. and how do you know i am not already in ofice, or alreadt running for it.

by the way you should look what imho means while your trying to get the moral high ground - that may take you a while tho

[RocketScientist79]

@grapes008 Fair enough then and thanks ;-)

[0snakebite]

@grapes008 simple like you? Everyone pays for the roads through council tax. What's your point?

[alanlad1]

i would love to have seen a door getting threw open

[TKDWolf]

WOW! They actually keep clear of the area that says "KEEP CLEAR!" In the US, nobody gives a fuck and blocks every intersection and crosswalk every time.

[taruvau88]

Although I am all for cycling, I really do not get your one-man, high and mighty war against other road users? Your campaign of antagonising people and semi-professional whining does nobody any favours. I too have a camera on my helmet but I wouldn't dream of hoping for trouble just so I could post it up on here. It's purely for insurance if something happens. I get the feeling you can't wait to post your stuff on once something happens.

Grow up mate.

[WieDrDerJonge]

Nice 8 series BMW @ 2:04!!

[Jrhynie]

A truly heartwarming video! A few less cars and a few more bikes me-thinks.

[shinichiBLUE]

hope you get run over and die lol :)

[gta4adict1993]

cycling = winning cars = failing

[271chrissy]

cool but your undertaking...fact

[dibble2005]

total waste of time.useless. Who cares

[MrPeacfulwarrior]

sooooo whats the point of this?

[peteshean]

cyclist twats!!!!!



[invalid729]

i cant believe not only are you asking to die by driving like this but your uploading a video of you being an ignorant idiot and gloating about it ? you deserve whats coming to you im afraid to say.

[halixol]

It's time to replace your lungs now :)

(unless you used a mask)

[weeeezzll]

Best part @ 6:20...

[themistress46]

It's not about hating cyclists, it's disliking SOME of them and the way they weave through traffic with no thought for safety. Yes, some drivers aren't very observant, but cyclists don't make it easy for drivers to see them sometimes. 8pm at night wearing dark clothing, hoods so they can't look around properly, no reflectors and no lights. it's hardly surprising some get hit.

[250Trojan]

This traffic is horrendous! Where is this and is this usual, or is it because of an unusual event (accident/motorway blocked etc)?

That looks fast for a push-bike.

[MrRowanMess]

Jesus, why would you bother driving a car if you had to do that journey everyday. I'm a motorcyclist myself but I'm planning on getting a bicycle soon.

[Vertdesir]

Great! You are absolutely right, magnatom!

[mafs13]

Damn British traffic is horrible..

[TrickeryStuff]

@mafs13 There isn't traffic jams alot

[trampolinist2]

i envy you for making this video its brilliant!

[magnatom]

@Peteioz LOL! A few corrections...I do have insurance. You are quite right I don't pay road tax. Neither do you. I do pay vehicle excise duty on my car though....

I guess this means that under your conditions, I can use the road then?

Oh and it is illegal to cycle on the pavement. :-)
