This kind of behaviour really undercuts our argument against aggressive drivers. BTW I did a search could find this vid if it's already been posted mods please yank this thread.

WOW... that was some serious traffic violations ;) I'm amazed one of them didn't get squashed. But, you have to admit, they had some serious bike handling skills. I assume they're messengers?

AHAHA HAHAHHAHHAA BAAAHAHAHHAHHAHA.

To be honest, i don't agree with you about "behaviour really undercuts our argument against aggressive drivers".

That's Manhattan, not the US.

Different kettle of fish altogther. That's the way i rode when i lived there. You pretty much have to ride that way if you wanted to survive, considering all of the psycho taxi drivers, idiotic fat @ss tourists, Hasidim in yellow school buses, and yuppies not looking as the cross streets yelling 'buy, buy, sell, sell!!!' :)

btw - what's a cager?

I've seen another vid by these guys. Seems whoever makes it is, like me, a Judas Priest fan! :)

Notice it's more about how stupid / crazy they are, than it is about power output etc.

Then we have Pedex talk about how he is pro...

wow thanks for posting that was awesome

Yep......and there's more for those who haven't seen the rest of his work:

A cager is someone who's riding/driving a car. A car is aka a "cage".

WOW... these guys are NUTS!

somebody buy these guys helmets, or at least get them tissue-typed so we harvest organs after the bus smushes 'em :EEK:

That makes me want to get a helmet cam.

Sylvoid's commuter helmet cam?

Everytime I see that video my sphincter tightens.

they are great vids, but have been posted many times. See how a lot of them are on fg bikes.
I love how the peds react though to the cyclists, no abuse! they just get out of the way

Go ride with pedex for a while. Let me know how you do.

I thought it was because we want to be called "cyclists" but some of us insist on referring to motorists as "cagers". :rolleyes:

Oh wait...it's a sympathy term, it's the same as calling fish in a tank "tankers" or more like calling hamsters "cagers," cause we feel sorry for them for being stuck in those cages, right?

Sorry, I just hate the term, and hypocrisy.

I bet they'd get honked at, flicked off, **** thrown at them etc. more if they obeyed the laws, stopped at lights and rode in the center of the lane.

are those guys high on something ?

- on crank?

:-)

In Manhattan, drivers hate cabbies and peds more than they hate cyclists.

I've seen these vids too and I think they are complete morons and would love to see one of them get smacked by a car and then have to pay for the damage they did to the car b/c their dumba$$ ran a red light...and if they grabbed my car like that I'd like to give them a ride they'd forget....totally stupid. Just my opinion!!!!
