I think the coach-firm chappie has been very diplomatic and understanding in his responses to date and I am 112% with the other replies: Take this no further. Under any circumstances. Not a millimetre.
His letters are carefully and (to the outsider) amusingly couched. He shows respect whilst keeping his tongue firmly in his cheek. His casual mention of 'your other 107 videos' online is a good example of his restraint and humour. He manages a couple more wry comments too, whilst keeping the overall tone professional and respectful.
I certainly wouldn't offer to come and speak to professional drivers (these or any others). This partly for the reason he gives and partly because you may still (at 18 or 19) be a little young to offer the views and experience of a seasoned cyclist. It is clear from your videos that you may still have a thing or two to learn about the big, bad highway. It's not a crime; we all did at your age.
I'd read and re-read all your drafts, too before writing to other firms. This phrase from your second letter would have been clearer if corrected: 'Brompton Avenue is a particular road which I have never been keep on'.
But for now I'd walk away secure in the knowledge that there is nothing you can add in that matter.
