Who puts themselves through that torment in a car on a daily basis ... is it always that bad?

It's grim up north

I don't think I would see that many cars in a week of commuting

What is the breakdown of cars, buses, vans and lorries ?

What you really want to know is how far the car at the back has travelled in the same time.

... and a pie chart for distribution of colour, according to the Dulux scale please.

It was the morning rush hour. Some days it can be lighter than this, but I would say that this is about average. It can queue back further!

I just thought about posting this following the Audi hairdresser suggesting that bikes shouldn't filter.

That has to be trick photgraphy/filming!

There can't be that many cars in Scotland!

 

[redjedi]

is all I have to say about that.

Aaaaah, what you're getting with confused with here, I think, is that anyone actually gave that to$$er a second thought after watching the vid. We all know he's a bell-end, and so does he (probably). As for him having the nouse to wander onto the internet to see your vid (of him being as ar$e and also you filtering delightfully)... well, I've possibly more chance of dying and being reincarnated as Sandra Bullock's favourite underwear in the next 10 minutes.

Nice vid though.

Having now survived about 5 weeks commuting here in Naples, I can report that filtering is a joy. Indeed, I have one really bad section and I notice that cars actually move away from you when they can, allowing a little bit more room. There is no anger, no raised voices and no one is trying to 'get you'. The traffic flows and the average car driver respects cyclists. There are dangers and it is not all perfect. Many drivers are just dozy, on their phone or just not paying attention and you have to be more aware of what is around you than in UK. But overall, I like it. 14 miles each way is not bad for the legs. So, I have watched these vids and am pleased that I no longer have the angry British driver to cope with.

No crashes, no arguments, but most noticeably - no other cyclists?

Would you cycle there knowing that the God of Cycling* is on the same road as you????


* In his own mind.

True. I left them all behind about a mile back!
