These types of incidents are inevitable. Surely you must realise this. All you have to do is slow down, and anticipate these incidents. I've been cycling in London for 40 years, and I've never come across the sort of issues that you're coming across, because I slow down, accept that other road users are going to do silly things, and prepare to give way if necessary, even if I'm the one who has priority. To be honest, your aggression shown to just about every other road user is quite shocking. You just seem to want to create conflict.
Always enjoy your videos Ryan, but as I’ve commented previously it confirms to me my decision not to cycle on the road. Far too dangerous for me! Good to see you posting again 👍👍👍🏴
Thank you Jim, glad you enjoyed the video. I hope that more people will consider cyclist when using the roads, and it will become safer so more feel that they can cycle too. 🙂👍🏻
Honestly a lot of the iffy moments in these videos could be avoided if Ryan went slower and drove more defensively. Of course, as long as he obeys the law he can cycle however fast he wants, not criticizing him. It's himself he's putting at risk, and if speed is worth the higher stress for him that's his decision. However I think these videos aren't necessarily representative of the risks for the average cyclist.
@@AsplundhFamily They were all avoided because I’m following the rules and paying attention to where I an going. There would be nothing to avoid if the other road users in my video also followed the rules and looked where they were going. Focus attention on them rather than victim-shaming a cyclist with a heavy steel bike with one gear going on average 12-14mph. Would you tell a harassed woman she’d have less iffy moments with men if she covered up and was more defensive, or would you focus on teaching men that harassing women is wrong?
@@ryansedgwick-londoncycling9007 Hey, sorry if it came off as me blaming you. That wasn't my intention. I'm just saying, your risks could be mitigated if you took certain precautions. To take your example, I would definitely advise my friends who are women (or lean femme in their gender presentation) to exercise caution when walking alone at night. Would it be their fault if they got assaulted for walking alone at night? Of course not. Is it right and just for the world to be like this? Fuck no, and I hate it. But just like with disgusting perverts, dangerous drivers are currently a part of our reality, and I think keeping this in mind would make you safer. I don't think it helps anyone to equate that with victim-blaming. At the social/policy level, we need to focus on reducing car speeds and distracted driving, but on my commute the only thing I can do as an individual to help assure my safety is cycling more cautiously. As I said you're free to cycle as you wish within the law, I just wanted to let the other commenter know that a lot of your clips could be avoided with a different cycling style. If the only way to ride was how you do it, I think a lot of people (like the commenter I replied to) would be turned off to the idea of cycling. Stay safe and happy riding!
@@ryansedgwick-londoncycling9007 Also, since I have your attention, I have to say I don't know how you keep your cool in some of these clips, I would be banging on hoods and yelling at the driver, some seriously dangerous people out there. So props for that!
Great video. However, realise that there is a blind spot on the left of vehicles where they don't see you. This counts for trucks, busses, vans and less for normal cars. The blind spot can extend to 50 meters behind the vehicles. I also do everything with my ebike. I see the same behaviour as you show with other bycyclists. This is just unnecessary playing with your precious life because those vehicles are stronger and can kill you in an instant. It is better to anticipate on others wrong behaviour or mistakes. You live longer and your body remains unharmed. Try to think about what moves a vehicle can make and prepare for the mistakes of others. After a while this kind of anticipative behaviour becomes a second nature and in the end it will bring you safe to your destiny. Remember, that everyone will make mistakes we are all human. Being a little more forgiving for the mistakes of others, will also give you less stress. I only try to give you and other people good advice, so you create more safety. And remember, preventing is better than healing! Keep this in mind at all times! Thank your your interesting videos, I like them very much. They can also add some more insights or truck, bus and car drivers how it looks from the viewpoint of a bycycle. Great job!
Happy New Year my friend, hope you’re keeping well. I think the new rules are pretty good, especially towards motorists to stop them cutting across cyclists, and accepting that cyclists sometimes need to hold the centre of the road. My fear is that the attitude that pedestrians can walk out whenever they like is strengthened by how these rules have been covered by the media. That’s not actually the case, the significance change is: “when people are crossing or waiting to cross at a junction, other traffic should give way” Key that it’s at a junction, so pedestrians still should just walk out anywhere. That said during rush hour in central London there are junctions where there is a constant stream of pedestrians waiting to cross, so should the traffic grind to a halt? Rules still say that pedestrians should not cross when the lights show a red figure, and still say that pedestrians should stop, look, if traffic is coming let it pass, wait for a safe gap to cross, cross the road quickly and not diagonally etc. Hopefully people continue to use common sense when crossing. 🤞🏻
@@ryansedgwick-londoncycling9007 Common sense? I think you're asking for a lot of some people ;) I'm sure it'll be one of those things where people adjust over time but I guess we can only wait and see, glad to see you're well

Inclined to give pededstrians a pass in most of these cases since we're the ones making the situation (a little bit) dangerous by bringing a bike into the equation. By the same token, I'd like drivers be extra careful so they dont hurt cyclists and pedestrians, even if they're being a bit silly.
I always take great care around pedestrians, and do all I can to avoid them. Pedestrians however must take responsibility for how they use the roads, takes just a second to look and wait for a safe gap before crossing. 🙂👍🏻
Just started watching your stuff & I really like it. However, I think you're expecting too much from other road users & pedestrians in a big city. The world is full of idiots & London has more than it's fair share. Makes for good footage but you have to expect this stuff and have 360⁰ awareness whilst out riding. You're braver than me as I don't think I could do what you do
Oh you are quite right, and I don’t expect anything of people. I cycle with two fingers on each brake lever and my eyes on stalks the whole time. It’s not a relaxing cycle!
At least you’re courteous when people walk in front you. You say “please” look before crossing, normally I just make a loud noise to alert them of their complete lack of competence.
I'm forever seeing people walking in the cycle lane at the Themes Tideway tunnel construction site by Embankment station, the banksman at the entrance does absolutely nothing, and the idiots don't take any notice of the sign, it's so bloody dangerous with the blind corner and nowhere to go with the on coming traffic
Tell me about it, it’s narrow and two way and just nowhere for pedestrians to go once they are in there.
