wykikitoon 21504 Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 You do really when a "bike" is involved though As a cyclist its easy to see why its happend. Too little education to drivers and cyclists alike on how to use the road together. Ignorant drivers who dont understand cyclists are traffic on the road and therefore give them no room at all, no respect and cyclists who weave in and out, jump red lights, use pavements etc. RIP man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 47118 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Looks like it might be true. First press report from the Sutton Guardian has hit google. It still only says that it's "believed to be" him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 A guy we know who cycles says him and his mate always cycle two abreast on purpose so they wont be overtaken by cars and knocked off! That's fucking stupid imo. All it'll do is antagonise motorists and lead to them taking daft risks. Especially given their speed will be holding up traffic.

Gemmill 47118 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 A guy we know who cycles says him and his mate always cycle two abreast on purpose so they wont be overtaken by cars and knocked off! He sounds like a retard tbf. Some cyclists are a fucking liability, but there's plenty drivers that don't give them a chance. I wouldn't cycle on the road tbh, it's just asking for trouble.

Exactly....infact it drives hubby mad (he suffers from road rage anyway) We noticed horse riders do it too, it forces the traffic to slow down so cars dont (in theory) race past, which they would do more easily if the riders were single file!

Toonraider 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Direct him to this thread TR Good idea! Thing is I think its does enrage people so they do take stupid risks. Then on the other hand my poor bruv who is slowly cycling to work early one dark morning (with lights on) gets knocked off his bike by a lorry that whipped past so fast on a narrow road he didnt even know what he'd done! Left my brother there on the pavement who managed to crawl to the nearby hosp. It gave me nightmares for weeks after worrying about my lovely bruv and what might have happened to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 fucking cyclists and motorbikes going up the middle between two cars at lights/traffic jams does my head in most of all.
