Original loaded on Youtube on 9th September - numpty filed a privacy complaint. His knowledge of privacy legislation in the UK is as poor as his driving.
Some brilliant driving on the clip - like the guys at the chicane at the beginning of the clip, and the grey BMW at the end.
But numpty in the Corsa decides instead to teach me a lesson - with a ton of steel.
I was riding solo on the tandem - handlebars are a lot wider, handling's different, and you need to take a bit more space to weave round the potholes and stuff.
1. First MGIF failed pass - he's within 6 inches of my handlebars. Cyclist behind says he nearly caught the back end and handlebars, because he pulled out too late.
2. Second pass - 9-12 inches clearance.
3. Third pass - bearable; maybe a couple of feet, but still too close. Ah - but this time I get the indicator to say I should be cycling in the gutter? I take that to mean the first two overtakes weren't just incompetence - they were deliberate.
