    I'll say this for you mate: how you cycle so easily through those little gaps is phenomenal! Total credit to your prowess on a bike.

      its easy, so long as you keep note of the speed of everyone around you and focus on where you are going it becomes second nature. Just gotta take it steady

    London still needs to do a LOT for a safe cycling infrastructure. This is insane. But i am Dutch so maybe i am spoiled

      Yes I agreed. London bike lanes suck. They designed the same as most Canada's cities (I am Canadian). You are very lucky to live in Amsterdam. Bike heaven city for cyclists

      By the looks of many other YT videos, there is a lot of infrastructure for cyclists, well I guess apart from The Oxford Street etc. :) , but gong back to the 90s, there was no infrastructure at all. So it has changed a lot in the past 20 yrs.

    Unfortunately you were going the opposite direction to regents street! Great video though, good insight into cycling around London.

    You're very fit. Going quite fast yet no heavy breathing or panting. Very good video.

    If you can navigate a pavement walking, you can cycle in the roads.
    It's about *presence*

    I think it would be more scary to ride, lets say in NYC :)
    Oh I do miss London and it's streets, and cycling there as well :)

      Yes. My Long Island project team includes the Philly architect who won't be allowed to forget having said no-one rides bikes in Nassau County. Hundreds of people ride to events at UBS arena, but yes I'm sure Jay soon got used to zipping around London and NYC is a very different proposition.

    The cyclist in front of you gets through the junctions well.

    London bike lanes suck. They designed the same as most Canada's cities (I am Canadian). Just draw a white line and call it a "bike lane" doesn't do a damn thing to protect cyclists from the damn cars

      Non cyclists are supposed to stay clear of those bikes lanes but often they don't.

    Oxford Street Why do they put a cycle lane in the middle of the road knowing the cyclist needs to return to the right hand side? Also why do tourists walk in the cycle lane over a London bridge why? lol

    Pedestrians should get a fine for j-walking in bike lanes that would put an end to that 😅😂❤
