    What bike are you riding? Handle bars look very narrow, aftermarket parts?

    Yesss - stopping after the lights…to slow everyone else down 😂

    Just like to say that sometimes traffic stops in places it's not supposed to be because the traffic line suddenly stops and there isn't anything you can do. The traffic in London is so screwed for many reasons that drivers do get frustrated. You ride considerately unlike the majority of cyclists in London so thank you.

    I like that the Prius driver was aware of your presence and waited for you to pass before turning. So many drivers are just oblivious. I’m actually a car driver and haven’t cycled in years, but I see so many near misses.

    Nice to see just a normal commute! I think it's important to see how calm and safe it is to cycle across town. I think people assume it's all loud and full of cars. But I reckon these days most commutes in inner London will be mostly quiet and delightful like this one. We hardly ever have to interact with cars! And when we do it's often like at 5:10 where they're in our way, not the other way around.

    why are red lights last that long

  • @jrchesuk
    @jrchesuk Před 3 měsíci

    The car did the right thing stopping for the pedestrian trying to cross, that was clear a few seconds before you attempted to pass. Also I get cars blocking the junction isn’t great because they shouldn’t have gone until the junctions clear, but that applies to us cyclists too. Cars blocking your way while manoeuvring isn’t great either but you weren’t there or at least visible to them when they started (excluding the taxi) so just as if you were in a car we wait! Great how polite you are, stopping for reds and wish more of us used a bell. Crap how many cars pass you close, no excuse!

    Cyclists jumping the red light is nothing new. Saw this many times even back in the 90s. If it was safe to cross, the red light was jumped. No one made a fuss about it. Same with pedestrians, crossing the red light when it was safe to do so, even with the police across the road/street - didn't you know that? :) 08:20 I wonder what their power meter is showing up xD

  • @Cycling.Doughnut
    @Cycling.Doughnut Před 5 měsíci

    Looking back into the 90s, London has changed a lot when it comes to bike lanes/highways/cycleways. I don't recall any of them back in those days, well I am not sure about central London, maybe there were some/few? I usually rode my bike outside of Zone 1, but spent lot of time in central London as a pedestrian and I don't recall bike lanes like there are now. What are your observations looking back in the past?

    I like this channel but you've been critical of other road users but at 3:50 you crossed a solid white line at the lights. Yes cars do pollute but so do electric vehicles.....power stations are needed to generate electric and 2.5 million tonnes of concrete are needed to construct them. Concrete is the worst pollutant of all. 2.5 millions tonnes of concrete is more than 10 million petrol cars will ever cause in pollution. On top of this your synthetic clothing for example. 500g of synthetic produced is more than a petrol car will ever cause in pollution. Anyway. I'm a cyclist but good and bad road users amongst everyone. Don't use the channel as a way of criticism of other users. enough CZcams channels do that. Id just like to find a channel of someone enjoying their commute without the constant criticism.

    Lol you keep telling me GREEN GREEN and I won’t move. What’s the rush & attitude? If someone wants to cycle slow then they can. Road bikers are such k***s

  • @valentinventures
    @valentinventures Před 10 měsíci

    That yellow box at 2:54 also drives me mental. People stop in it without fail almost every time I cycle past it. It’s funny how people hate on London cyclists but say nothing about the other London vehicles. They’re no better as an average. People in the big city are generally like this regardless of what they use to get around. Blocking bike boxes, cutting people off, reversing into them, failing to give way to pedestrians and cyclists, passing too close, ALSO running red lights. I’ve seen plenty of red light running cars and scooters and even buses here, yet cyclists seem to get all the blame. It’s not an enjoyable experience to cycle on the roads here.

    You Sir are an extremely skilled rider, and also extremely confident. I would lack the intestinal fortitude to ride a bicycle in that much congestion of cars, cyclists, pedestrians, and hazards. Greetings from Melbourne, down under.

    Never seen so many walkers on the embankment tunnel bit with no pedestrian access. That was walking dead level. To be fair it's messed up and forces peds to cross a difficult road. I do it every morning and always watch for a walker there. Wag my finger at them. One guy screamed at me like he would legit kill me if he got close enough. Like a walker keep them at a distance.

    As far as I can see you're an impatient biker/racer and it seems that you have to correct others all the time. I know it is so much harder to bike in London as it is in the Netherlands, but with your attitude you wouldn't be popular here.

    a.k.a. " A standard day in any UK city. " It's always entertaining to watch the creature that got to the moon and wrote the plays of Shakespeare being as fick as s**t when it comes to bikes. To me it's essential to be entertained by it instead of angered.
