2 Strokes Down Under

My mate was cycling home yesterday:

The idiot is riding illegally in a cycling lane and decides to abuse?
I don't get it - does he think it's a motorcycle lane or what? His rant makes no sense at all to me. Hopefully the police book the idiot.

Should be simple to send the cops the link i would think, plate is clear to be seen and the abuse defo not needed.

As an aside, wow your mate can cycle, fair zipping along. Only downside for him passing all the M2 traffic is the pollution I guess. yuk :/

Yeah he's a bit of a freak on the bike.
Most impressive thing is he was always a big boy growing up... now super fit.
Rides from the Hills into the city for work most days.

haha, cool.

Interestingly there are a lot of laws being broken on the tape by the bikes. Riding in cyclelane I guess is one, undertaking traffic on inside of inside lane, filtering (for another month or so, but even then filtering moving traffic) and probably a few more...

I've posted the video to the Parramatta LAC page on facebook. If something comes of it, so be it.

His actions are pretty indefensible in my opinion, but it's good to hear from neutral parties because I might be a bit biased.

Fair call Jeff. Interesting to see what happens.

Haha, Well I have ridden a bicycle a lot and see both sides and I will say that I support the cyclist in this case... but... Like this biker, I do find that there are a few cyclists seem to give their like a bad name. Running red lights, riding with no lights or very bright ones aimed at drivers faces, using paths and crossings to 'get ahead' etc. Having almost been struck by an idiot on a pathway recently I was appalled when blamed me, even though he flew round a blind bend in the path and nearly wiped me out... at night, lightless. Sigh.

Yep... I am normally against the cyclists too, even though I ride one now.
So many idiots on them with a sense of entitlement - but when they're in a cycle lane... good on them.

(The Motorcyclist) what a goose . It one thing to make stupid statements when you are taken by surprise but it is another thing entirely when you have a couple of minutes to realise.

The motorcyclist was soooo far in the wrong it ain't even funny - legally, morally and socially in the frigging wrong.

Yeah but ya gotta forgive him - he is one of the Beemer wankers on his adventure bike that will never see anything more exciting than a gay coffee in Woolloomooloo.

LOL, A Charlie Borman wannabe... (yes I deliberately used Charlie as the name there, imagine wishing you were that lightweight LOL!)
