Reasonable response. I'd have done the same if he pulled out in front of me when I was in a car.

The original video seems legitimate enough but he's got loads more that don't seem to be quite as justified.

Just been looking through them as well. Agreed, the guy us actually a but of a . Going out looking for trouble, and shouting at pretty much anybody.

I'm going to change my initial thoughts. He's an absolute nut. Yelling at old people for stopping fractionally after the line at a red light and endless tirade of abuse.

So which car was he shouting at?

The one which pulled out with what looked like plenty of room to spare, or the one approaching the junction getting ready to pull out? confused

Unless there's something I haven't seen, I'm not sure either driver did too much wrong?

It's amazing how many cyclists will happily cycle without lights on busy roads, during rush hour when the sun has gone down/it's raining/snowing/whatever, and still expect cars to be able to see them. Sometimes it can be hard enough to see other cars when they're driving around without lights.

He also seemed to start shouting long before the car pulled out of the junction - it was a bad move by the car, but he'd obviously predicted it. We criticise someone's roadcraft if they allow a situation they predicted to develop when in a car, it shouldn't be any different for those on a bike, even if he is hoping to get knocked off so that his video suddenly has a purpose.

What the hell, that first car wasn't really that close... not sure it justified the comical scream... think he might just go round on his velocipede looking for a fight! :P

What a hypocritical prick. One day he will say something to the wrong person and get knocked out

Quite, seems to over react to every slight issue. But thinks it acceptable to ride through a red crossing light which is much worse than everything else he details.

This guy is a fking moron. Have you seen the video where he hits the car that doesn't give way to him, or the one where he cuts in front of the Mercedes that is slowing for the speed bumps? He is an idiot, deliberately putting himself in danger and then flipping his lid when danger finds him.

In some of the videos, he is just shouting at nothing, just another cyclist with an attitude problem.

Bloody cyclists, they just don't want to share the road with anyone.

It's a shame the audio is so distorted or it would make a good remix for Youtube.

It must be so cool being out there, policing the roads, letting people know they've done wrong in no uncertain terms by waving his green fingerless gloves at them and shouting in his best nerdy voice!

rofl what an angry man. Life's too short.

Although, I think in that first vid I'd have been fuming, the rest of them are bizarre confused
