I would say that based on the video in the OP that there is a lot about this man that provides fuel for ridiculing him. But the combination of his weight and how wrong he is in his assertion about the "dangers" of cycling combines to make a very (no pun intended) big target. And as we all know it isn't cycling that is dangerous, rather it's the distracted, drunk, sleepy, inattentive and speeding drivers that makes the road(s) dangerous.
Motorists need to learn that they are
NOT the only ones on the road, and that cyclists, pedestrians, etc. all have a legal right to be on the road.
