I thought that was normal urban riding? Doesn’t everyone ride like that?

Looks like a good way to cull idiots on bikes

I thought the most common way for cyclists to get “culled” in London was getting trapped between a barrier and a left turning lorry.
Which is more idiotic, riding through a red light or waiting at a red light in a lorries blind spot ?

2. What is the point of a fixed gear bike?

I think I can answer that, I had one as a teenager.

1. You can stand on one pedal as you are moving forwards then bob up & down as the crank rotates.
2. Cornering is more exciting as you can’t raise the inside crank & a pedal will hit the ground if you lean the bike over too far.
3. You can ride backwards.

HTH 🙂
