Fail.

If that was the side of my truck, I would be upset.

muckymucky 06-09-11 01:06 PM

the cyclist was probably just following the bike path. and seeing that their lines are all crooked, the cycling had no choice but to follow in zigzag pattern. its that country's fault really.

he was probably confused by the red paint

Yep. 100%.

chenghiz 06-09-11 02:32 PM

Just so we're clear, the zigzag lines mean it's a pedestrian crossing. The cyclist is a dumb**** trying to split lanes between a bus and a car and he got what he deserved. There is no bike path in that video.

rustybrown 06-09-11 02:42 PM

should have cut his risers shorter

Hartigan 06-09-11 02:54 PM

Problem is obvious...no Brakes!!

No... the guy is an idiot with a lack of skills who was lucky to have not been crushed.

'hipster trash compactor' is probably the FUNNIEST title in existence.

i might name my next bike that.

RaiderInBlue47 06-09-11 08:45 PM

Wow. That bus driver should be ashamed of himself. All self-respecting bus drivers should be aware of cyclists swerving by them at all times. Everybody knows that hipsters get right of way at all times!

People in a hurry usually suck. Whether in a car or on a bike.

Best Video title of the year so far, IMO. :)

His bars were clearly too wide. He should cut them down to 10cm.

I hope you're kidding. The problem wasn't his lack of brakes, it was his lack of brains (also, as mentioned, needs 20cm risers)

Well, technically there is but it begins after the intersection in which all the action takes place.

rustybrown 06-09-11 10:21 PM

lulz...look left is clearly painted on the road.

PeDDeR27 06-09-11 10:40 PM

He should still have brakes, but I bet even if he did have them, he still would have done the same thing.

LesterOfPuppets 06-09-11 10:47 PM

Brakes aren't the problem here. He was just too damn slow. If he coulda shaved 4 seconds off his time he woulda had an easy gap there.

cc700 06-09-11 11:43 PM

hell if had just not locked up the last twenty feet he had pleeeenty of room

LesterOfPuppets 06-09-11 11:49 PM

I do love how he accelerates once that big red conveyor belt grabs hold of him!
Almost like a baseball pitching machine.

seau grateau 06-09-11 11:53 PM

Honestly, that was a pretty sick skid he busted right at the end.

LesterOfPuppets 06-09-11 11:54 PM

shoulda whipped it 90° hockey stop style, tho

seau grateau 06-09-11 11:59 PM

Word.

gilmatic 06-10-11 06:14 AM

Wow this guy is my favorite biker. All he has to do now is hill bomb into a crowded intersection. So XTREME!
