Happy/chearful cycling videos

[sophie]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone knows of any funny or cheerful videos of day to day cycling or commuting on YouTube?
As all i ever see is people moaning about rude drivers and close passes which don't get me wrong are good and are part of day to day for us all, but that's all i seem to come across instead of the lighter side of cycling or even the joy of interacting with others and biking in and around towns and
city's

Any way hope that makes sense and dosnt offend anyone.

No, Cyclist's are an aggressive, grumpy lot who like to film their confrontations with other road users. At least that's the impression I get of city cyclist's whenever I look at you tube videos.

Why doesn't he use the cycle lane?
Other cyclist seem to be fine with riding along the cycle lane.

most do seem grumpy that pass me in the morning but that might because i smile and say hello to them,

And im not overly sure it is a cycle path looks more like a pavement, but i just like this vid as it ends with a thumbs up as the lorry over takes him properly the 2nd time after being asked politely not to kill the cyclist lol

This morning, I did a 20 mile ride in country lanes. There was a narrow road with a bend and a steep hill. The motorist behind me had no choice but to come behind me. When he was finally able to pass through, I gave him a thumb up sign. But whenever I do this it makes me think again.
It looks as if road belongs to motorist and we cyclists are grateful for him for letting us use his road.
Other side of the argument is that it is just common courtesy. So I continue to do it but I have some mixed feelings about the whole thing.

Doing that is simply rewarding desirable behaviour, keep doing it

Not a funny video but no angry motorists or traffic jams..
