Worried about ice?

Worried about ice? Here is a Dutch video to show you how it is done...

Some nice saves there, but I bet there'll be some sore knees in the morning.

It was icy today, but thankfully I only encountered the horrid stuff when I was going in a straight line. I went down the coast and was quite surprised at just how much ice was at the side of the road, and the wind was biting cold. It made the coffee at the cafe all the more pleasant.

something quite unpleasant about that video, especially when you see that a lady with a child on the back was one of the 'victims'.

She didn't seem too concerned though. I'd have thought the first thing to do was immediately look behind frantically and check on the child. Maybe it was the way the video was edited.

Had a few scary moments myself with ice on today's ride.

The silly sound effects made it even less funny.

I agree. I turned off the sound as it was irritating me.

That was my first impression, but the video is only part of the message.
The video adds credence to the views expressed in the text on a topic that has given rise to countless postings on this very forum.

Maybe he didn't sit there recording all day but just left a video running to see if it had caused major problems, trying to see a good side. Some were definitely cycling too fast for the conditions given there was a corner coming up - however it looked as if you could come off no matter what speed you were doing.

Sorry,just seen the video....that looks awful.
