Epic fail

Er, it's not a motorway.

I've ridden like a twat with the best of them in my time, but there were plenty of wince inducing moments there. Nobody has to do anything odd or stupid when your speed differential between lines of traffic is that high and the clearance is that small - a 3 inch drift off line by a dozy car driver and you're off.

3 inch drift - utter rot. Spend some time riding round the M25 in rush hour and it knocks that into a cocked hat. And there aren't bodies left right and centre. He's clearly a very capable rider on a high performance machine. His anticipation is exceedingly good, as is his breaking and weighting. Yes it's risky, but it's not Russian roulette. I've been nudged by idiots in cars on roads - you don't turn into a red smear as soon as they look at you.
