Cheers for the feedback everyone!
I'll get you for this.
Unfortunately the vast majority of other cyclists I see filtering are like the two chaps on mountain bikes midway through the clip - BSO riders hopping on and off the pavement. Funnily just after the clip ends I overtake them as they wait at a pedestrian crossing - didn't really speed them up taking the pavement.
Eh?
That section is a bit tricky, because there's a long bit where the road isn't sure whether it's one lane or two. In fact I witnessed a near colission this morning between two cars as both tried to 'filter' simultaneously.
Not an option, unfortunately. The only option would be to leave work 20 minutes later, which I often end up doing! Usually at that time I get to the station 5-10 minutes early, this time I JUST missed it.
Forgot about that, shall read again.
Well have a cup of tea ready for me next time!
Had your headphones on?

Difficult one-as it's about what you are personally happy with.
Do you ever get the chance to watch other cyclists filtering?

Edit it then if you don't won't dross ?

My thoughts...
Before you got to the crossing, the traffic was favouring the inside and were well spaced apart. At that point I would have gone outside until forced back inside or into mid ane between vehicles.

So, perhaps the best way for you not to miss the train ...is to set out 10 mins earlier.

if you do insist, there is a section in "the guide" (a sticky at the top of this section) devoted to good solid advice on filtering...worth a read

You cycle past my house! At 1:30 cycle on the right until you pass the lorry, then continue how you were.
