oh yes ! i just got rid of my carbon frame myself, and bought a colnago super saronni 1984 frame. Just finished to mount the components on it and it is stunning. Steel is real \m/
@@Iñaki22331I wasn't talking about mtb vs road biking, but riding in traffic vs rocky terrain. I ride on tarmac roads too with my mountain bike, as well as i commute with an old mtb in traffic. It doesn't matter what bike you ride, just be safe!
man wish I could record my rides here in Pakistan to let the world know how bad is it in here. for reference, once a local van passed almost half a foot near me. It must be going around 60-70 kmph. And then stopped after 200m, forcing me to leave the "cycle lane" to the main road with heavy traffic.
I know of 4 people who died riding and one who is a paraplegic. And a lot of riders don't treat this as seriously as they should! Certainly there are certain motorists who hate us for unknown reasons!!
unknown reasons? lol cut the obtuse act. cyclists are slow as hell compared to cars and in groups take up so much of the road that drivers will of course get aggravated dealing with them. I would say the average driver hates cyclists and I dont blame them based on how the majority of cyclists act. that is they hold up traffic and break traffic laws left and right.
@@robertsharp6072 Share the road? Ever heard of that?? Cyclists ride on the shoulder - cars ride in the center of the road. When I see a cyclist do something dumb on a bike I hate it as it gives people like you another reason to hate cyclists. Do you think you have a right to kill cyclists by car? What I wrote here is true - I know a handful of people who have died and one who is a paraplegic with severe TBI. The paraplegic was hit by a drunk driver who rolled his car and landed on him. He told me that those people were laughing after they supposedly killed him. WTF.
Overtaking on blind curves is a standard car manoeuvre all over the world it seems. Dont understand how som have the guts to do so, it must be the lack of braincells.
@@marcoliubenov8092 would be just much safer to let him go around than to cause a whole accident and send the car towards the bicyclist. But yeah he had the right intentions
@@The86rick there are some bike accidents in my area once in a while, but luckily there are a ton of security cameras and from what i've seen so far , cyclist in my area are the cleanest i know
First clip was actually refreshing, lorry overtook me 50% and then pulled completely in smashing my arm on his trailer couple of times, i had nowhere togo with a high mudbank to my left, i find this clip he was very "polite".
Yeah those are some pretty tight issues, but I can understand the drivers: you tryna do your work in time, drivin around with that truck, carrying valueables, and then some self made Lance Armstrongs are blocking your way 30 km/h. It can be fckin annoying.
I agree. Cyclists were all over the lane, ocupying the whole leane. They are here for fun, but he does this for a living. He went on the other lane because it was the only thing that he could do.
Single file,guys. Anything else is stupid and selfish considering bikes speed. I won't ride with a group on my motorcycle or bicycle cause on motorcycles there's always that one guy that nearly (or does) crash while in a group, and bicycles seem to think they're in the tour de france and take up all the road. To those guys, here's some advice: the best training isn't slipstreaming behind 15 others- get out in the wind in ones and twos.
Typical riding 2 or 3 abreast and expecting traffic to set behind you for 15k. Deserve a horn and some cases a bumper too. Your the type that get all cyclist harrased like ones trying to work with traffic.
There are some bad drivers ,but when road riders ride2 a breast and dont care about any one else on the road thats why people drive bad the roads are there for us all
Cyclists, would you stand in the middle of the road with cars whipping past at 60mph?? You are a near stationary object on the road, even on your bike. Suicidal!
Yes, those car drivers made some bad decisions and some of them just acted like totally morons, BUT! Why in the world do you own all the lane? The bike is like 500mm wide. If you go near the curb drivers are able to pass you without going to the opposite lane. It's way safer for all road users to let faster vehicles go than make them try to pass you in th opposite lane. Be nice and stay safe. Cheers!
well yeah but you have to leave 1.5m of space between you and the cyclist when you overtake(at least where i live) and if you dont is so scary as a cyclist, better use the other lane imo
@@nicolasmattelin2374 here in Russia where I live we don't have this rule. We have right sided driving direction and in the same time cars with steering wheel in the right side are allowed. It is very usual when you ride a bike and right steered vehicle passrs you it goes right in the couple centimetres left to your left hand. Scary as hell. So I prefer to ride in the roadside (or curb, idk correct translation, I'm sorry) and I go to the road only when the curb is not rideable. Yes, it sucks, our rules don't protect bikers anyhow but if I was riding in these wonderful places from the video I would have go as right as I can
You don't have more of a right to be on the road based on the width of your vehicle. Cyclists should generally take a secondary position which is roughly 1 metre from the edge of the road or from parked vehicles but they are perfectly within their rights to take a primary position in the centre of the road if they think the situation warrants it.
0:48 Can we all appreciate the man riding a vintage Colnago in 2021?
I was just about to point that out. Non-aero cable routing! A man after my own heart...
oh yes ! i just got rid of my carbon frame myself, and bought a colnago super saronni 1984 frame. Just finished to mount the components on it and it is stunning. Steel is real \m/
I still ride a 1973 Carlton Corsa 🙂
It will outlast the vast majority of bikes made in 2021.
not just that, he's actually got the toe clips on there!
2 cars pass on solid lines and collide with each other. Feelsgoodman
The rare triple overtake into blind corner
Happens to us all on a daily basis, yet we come and watch clips of it happening to other and gasp in shock! 🥺🤫
This is why i feel more safe riding alone in the woods on steep rocky trails, than i do in traffic.
Yeah. Mtb all the way!

I prefer to ride on a paved bike path separate from traffic.
Same here in UK.

The decision making of some people is just appalling. Just slow DOWN.
@Da Vee Day! ?
This is why i think there should be dedicated cycle lanes everywhere.
Feels good to live in the Netherlands 👍 very, very flat, but also very safe

I don't understand how people can give such horn action under pressure like that, I can only manage to control the car
From my expiernece, those who lay on the horn are usually the most out of control.

Last one, give that pick up driver kudos, double yellow line enforcer
No that was stupid, followed by more stupid!
It looked almost like he was trying to protect the cyclists

The last clip is so stupid I couldn't even understand what happened until the 4th replay...
0:32 happened to me thousands of times , wierdly all cyclist i know ride flawlessly but the drivers...
@@The86rick there are some bike accidents in my area once in a while, but luckily there are a ton of security cameras and from what i've seen so far , cyclist in my area are the cleanest i know
@Lukasz usualy happens on a 10km straight flat section , they just give no shits

Got to say that road ain't wide enough for 2 vehicles and you and I know who will come off 2and best so don't
This is why I don't ride a bike anymore
@Fred Ol says the guy NOT RECOVERING FROM A BROKEN BACK
So true ! Every cyclist has this story !!
Close calls? Seens you have never been bike messenger...
in France we have the same drivers 😤
Most people that drive cars are impatient.
I will stay on my rail trails
Only my reasoning is I like want I want haha...
No thanks I'll stick to mtb.
Il n'y a que l'amour du vélo qui vous accepter de tels risques.
Don't ride on roads like that. You can find better ones.
Nothing to see here, just normal driver behaviour..
Yeah those are some pretty tight issues, but I can understand the drivers: you tryna do your work in time, drivin around with that truck, carrying valueables, and then some self made Lance Armstrongs are blocking your way 30 km/h. It can be fckin annoying.
So dangerous
En Colombia se cagarian del susto.
first clip: the truckdriver did very well.
I agree. Cyclists were all over the lane, ocupying the whole leane. They are here for fun, but he does this for a living. He went on the other lane because it was the only thing that he could do.
Or the truck driver could’ve waited….
Maedetti ciclisti
Sempre in mezzo al cazzo ahahahaha
Why do cyclists wear black, this is surely one of the worst visible colours
Single file,guys. Anything else is stupid and selfish considering bikes speed.

Not really. It's easier to pass a tightly bunched group than one that's strung out along the road in single file.
Typical riding 2 or 3 abreast and expecting traffic to set behind you for 15k. Deserve a horn and some cases a bumper too. Your the type that get all cyclist harrased like ones trying to work with traffic.
So maybe don’t drive ur car & walk instead? That way you’ll be single file 😉
Not play with your cycle on the road, it’s where we drive cars ! 🤬
There are some bad drivers ,but when road riders ride2 a breast and dont care about any one else on the road thats why people drive bad the roads are there for us all
When ur driving ur car, ur 2 abreast all the time…
Cyclists, would you stand in the middle of the road with cars whipping past at 60mph?? You are a near stationary object on the road, even on your bike. Suicidal!

Why in the world do you own all the lane? The bike is like 500mm wide. If you go near the curb drivers are able to pass you without going to the opposite lane. It's way safer for all road users to let faster vehicles go than make them try to pass you in th opposite lane. Be nice and stay safe. Cheers!
well yeah but you have to leave 1.5m of space between you and the cyclist when you overtake(at least where i live) and if you dont is so scary as a cyclist, better use the other lane imo
It's safer to pass a sort line of 2 abreast riders than it is to pass a long strung out line of single file
