Mad Fixie Cyclist

[magnatom]

This lady fixie cyclist just couldn't wait behind me at the lights. Then when the lights change, she just couldn't wait until the road was clear.....

She's just a fashion victim with poor skills, IMO.

I think Mikey has just about hit the nail on the head there. She is only one step above a bent rider imo.

You need to cut your deadlocks they're blocking half the view.

I bet she only bought that bike this week.

No, sorry (assuming you mean my rear view camera! ). I haven't had it on recently. I'm waiting for the new battery and waterproof cover to come out, and for someone to buy it for me!

It is a dogcamsport HQ1 camera attached to an Archos recorder. When I get a chance I'll be writing a little review. Remember, you can get 10% if you look in the Discounts tab at the top of the page.

Ok, so maybe she's new to riding a fixie. So what? At least she's on a bike, and it didn't look like she did much wrong to me. You lot are enough to put anyone off cycling.

I think magna's just showing how bad positioning can be. Bods who wobble ahead of you at lights are annoying, and you can see magna holding a hand up in horror at her edging forward.

Can't get you tube at work - is she fit?

Umm, it was blindingly obvious to me and all around that there was no space for her to turn. You can see my reaction as she starts to go when, if she had kept going she would probably have been hit (the car was approaching fast, faster than 30mph I suspect).

I can understand lapses of concentration, but I had a feeling that she was going to do something stupid and she did. My feeling was she was trying to get one over/ or show off to the geared (me) cyclist. Her arrogance was very daft and it could have cost her dearly.

I should also add, that the bike didn't look new to me.
