Great video

Yes, i was talking to Andrew R about this video at the weekend. A very smart and level headed bloke is Chris Boardman. Lets hope the message gets to those that need educating.

Good video as is the other one they made on riding two abreast.

I hope that they reach plenty of non-cycling motorists.

the problem is always that to ride two up the riders need to be disciplined. Drove behind a club ride up here ...not a race or an event....and they were three and four abreast. Even two up they took the entire lane. Didn't bother me but I know a non cyclist would have been irate and possibly abusive. Even our club doesn't universally ride a tight two up and that's what really causes most frustration. Close passing like the prat fall angry guy video (lol) is also very common and inexcusable, but they might just be hissed at the other times trying to pass a group.
Agree about Boardman video, but he should make it using normal club riders across the road and try and make his point...don't think it would come across so well, do you?
