What supercharged bicycle are you riding here; overtaking and leaving cars behind

[xdr5xdrf]

lol, Its just a midrange trek road bike,the road is slightly downhill toward the end ,but mostly flat,

[clazzyfree1]

Is this that derby street/ st helens road near the end of the video??

[xdr5xdrf]

yes

[stewartx5]

Since she stopped and looked right you while waiting for you to pass, how is she stupid? Anyway, is this fake? The female pedestrian at 2:34 looks (leg movements, arm movements, etc) very much like an computer generated character out of some computer game.

No watch again, she stepped into the road woihout looking , she only looked right because I yelled at her if I had not done so,she would have contined a bit further,probably with disasterous results.

There is no such thing as Jaywalking in the U.K Pedestrians have the right of way as soon as they put a foot on the road.

I think you should edit the first 2min out.

Haha.

"Whooah!"

"Woof!"

do you realise how stupid it is to undertake cars coming up to a possible left-hand turn (at 2:22 in the video)? what if the taxi turned left? my guess is you'd probably have blamed him for not seeing you. and cyclists wonder why they get hit off...

Is ever country so stupid to let these damn pedestrians do as they damn well please? Must be that green eco-nazi agendas.

[REPCLONE]

hit + run that bitch. she's a butterz ayway

[tylernccdirect]

why was she walking on the road in the first place when the lights were on green and cars were driving down the road. By the way for people such as americans, this is a pelican crossing, vehicles have the right of way until the traffic lights turn red, pedestrians press a button which then says 'WAIT' and eventually the traffic lights turn red, and a pedestrian crossing light turns green, otherwise they shouldn't cross unless the road is clear

She should have looked granted, but you should also read the highway code and learn to use the roads, just because youdon't need a licence for a cycle don't make it alright to ignore basic road safety.

I'm guessing that was a helmet cam, ifso you did not do nearly enough blind spot checks and when aproaching a crossing even if the lights are green your slow and be prepared to stop.

Pedestrians have right of way always. over cucles, motorcycles, cars, the lot

besides a good chauffeur knows there are idiots in the traffic .

so you got to think ahead and keep in mind ,everyone can fuck up.

limit your speed is the first step to quik reaction.

[ImmortalUniverse]

well i see you driving like an idiot . so no wonder you almost hit her.

first you drive to fast .

second you dont keep enough distance at some points ,so the car in front is blocking the view.

third you drive on a bus lane ,i dont know if thats forbidden ,but over here it is.

fourth it is not a good street to pass a car.

i mean ,just slow down ,and you wont have those issues

I'm surprised she didn't hear you from miles away, your gears are very noisy.
