Kamikaze Cyclist - Mulholland Highway 1-18-09

Following Toby (who I met at the lookout point after this happened) on his Ducati up The Snake (aka, Mulholland Highway) just above The Rock Store when a cyclist comes down the hill too fast and blows the turn. Their rear tires just touch. Luckily everyone got away without incident.

Shot from my '07 VW GTI with a Sony DCR-SR85, CruiseCam camera mount, and wide-angle lens.

Did the cyclist stop or rode off?

[chadmonkey]

@t1sutton He rode off, but the motorcyclist, Toby, chased him down and had a word or two with him.

@tennisstar5231 Thank you for the correction. I will make a note of it while i am practicing my hooked on phonics in my car while evading the the stupid bicycles on the road at the same time. good tip :)

@turbopower130

Your insults would hurt much more over the internet if your grammar was correct. I hate when people make these mistakes. It's "they're a car," not their. Their represents possession of something.

awesome countersteering skills on the motorcyclists part

[Fuzion180]

damn close! nicely controlled though lol

[Lightningchase1973]

@turbopower130 Shoot yourself into the head, maybe that helps. Indeed that cyclist did a mistake, by driving too fast, loosing control. I see quite a lot of vids, of that location of kikers and car-drivers doing so, but beeing way more dangerous to others. So stop you fucking car and walk you faggot.

[yes333yes]

Toby is quite talented to make that maneuver without going of the road and looking back at the same time. Glad he chased him down too!

Azé', nem semmi, ahogy rakja neki felfelé! (Talán stéherezett?)

@turbopower130 Staying on the sidewalk is illegal and dangerous. Roads were primarily built for horses and horse drawn carriages , than came bikes , than cars and motor bikes. Rather than advice like "stay on the sidewalk bitch!" , you should be giving out advice like " pay attention to evrything around you and behave like the worst case scenario was always to happen whilst on the road , bitch!"

[turbopower130]

@jacmar44 stay on the fucking sidewalk then, roads are for cars bitch!

He made a mistake get over it. At least when a cyclist makes a mistake he doesn't kill someone. And how often does this happen? Hardly ever. How often does some cock head in a car maim or injure someone? Every day. I ride a motorcycle and a car every day and I feel sorry for what cyclists have to put up with. Everyone likes to vent their frustrations on them because lets face it. Car drivers are fucking idiots who spend more time smoking, eating or playing with their iphones than driving.
