Cyclists hold up cars, don't they?

I love my new bike. :-)

(Average speed about 28-29mph)

So why do you post these video's treating all drivers as idiots?

[magnatom]

@weblefeck I have never, and would never suggest that all drivers are idiots. Most are good. Some cyclists are bad as well, and I have posted them. I also post when I make mistakes. Google 'Magnatom FAQ'

[weblefeck]

Im shocked u didnt fly straight though the red light at the end of the film, red lights seem to not apply to cyclists

[magnatom]

@weblefeck Do speed limits apply to drivers?

[weblefeck]

@magnatom Big difference between jumping a red and creeping over the speed limit, you only have to look at the penalties.....

[magnatom]

@weblefeck Which poses the greatest risk of death? A RLjing cyclist, or a speeding car? As for creeping over..LOL! Most drivers significantly break the limit.

[magnatom]

@weblefeck I should add I never jump red lights and the antics of other cyclists is in no way my responsibility. Are you responsible for other drivers?

[WrecksKrieger]

Gee, you're just proud of holding up traffic, aren't you? You go, girl!

[abc9128]

may i ask why your not driving your bike at the most left you can like that biker at 12sec and at 50sec why your overtaking there thats just asking for touble

[TrickeryStuff]

this has nothing to do with the video but Go Scotland!

[Phoenix863]

I don't see what was wrong with the black Focus. WTF are you doing in the middle lane anyway???

@magnatom

You must be kidding if you really think jumping a red light is less dangerous than going 60 instead of 50 km/h.

Revenge???? is that what bike riding is all about??? Seeking revenge only inflames situations....how will the car-bicycle divide ever be removed if all we do on the road is seek 'revenge'?

This guy is fast i bet he dont smoke forty a day.

[golaoi]

I'm cycling all my life and I think you're cycling too fast for that traffic. If anything happens it's hard to adjust. I would HATE to cycle that road in that traffic.

allway trying to catch up or overtake with their daft wee astra,s an wot like,.course i never let them past ,till its obvious im just letting em past as the point has been proven .
