going about 18-20 mph maybe - looks like 1-2 cars distance between them - include reaction time and wet roads and there is now way the car stopped in time. pretty grim watching.
pfft about 10-12 mph

If the car stops in time then he's very lucky. Otherwise he's dead and I dont think this is the thread for mocking dead hipsters.../erm ;P

It would be unwatchable if it had been a crash with serious consequences, but much of its appeal lies in it being seemingly just a silly mistake from which he emerged intact.
Part of me hopes that it wouldn't have been put up on-line if he had been seriously injured or killed, but another part of me fears that I'm probably wrong in relying on such simple hopes.

Those Easton bars don't need tape, they come with a grippy texture ; )
And they are real quality too.
I have yellow sunglasses now to match my bike :)

"Bike without brakes is the trend
There is a new craze in the capital. On a special bicycle riding without brakes and gears. Daredevils get breakneck speed out through at full speed through the city to drive. Left and right pedestrians and cars should be avoided. I hope it goes well ..." -

I avoid only left pedestrians.
