SimonTan 2nd Gear June 10, 2012 Share June 10, 2012 The problem is most of these cyclist are also riders or drivers on the road. Especially those ang-moh or high end bicycles rider/owner, I believe most own a car and pays road tax. So it's sad to see some of them riding bicycle like they are still in their motorcycle or cars. This video just proved that some day they will meet their makers. Truely dangerous and stupid! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dehydration can cause hyponatremia. A few years back, one of them even went head-on with a bus (died on the spot). Although cycling is gaining popularity here, road safety awareness does not seems to be as popular yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be aware that many/most of the cyclists who are non-drivers, knows next to nothing abour road safety in accordance to the Highway Code. Some requested for dedicated bicycle lane because they are not able to cycle in an orderly manner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be aware that many/most bicycles these days comes with multiple gear ratios to entertain ascending hills, start-stop traffic conditions. Losing momentum means they are incompetent cyclists (failed to observe traffic flow and select the correct gear ratio). They can go for some cycling training or do indoor cycling instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldlian987 3rd Gear June 10, 2012 Share June 10, 2012 but then again, u dont need to learn the highway code to know the meaning of red, amber and green light? isnt that common sense that red means stop? oops i forgot cyclists have got no brains and common sense and probably use their asses to think.

If not how to afford this kind of bikes. I think the first rider riding a pinarello Dogma based on color scheme and the shape of his fork. Sure know the highway code.
