I'll put it nice and plain for you so since you insist.
The woman in the video "became" a victim because of his verbal onslaught over a very minor road issue.
This must have given this cowardly excuse of a handbag his jollies for the whole day

He wouldn't shout me down and intimidate me, I'd like to see him try.

i agree he was right but no need to be an arse
people are to hung up on the law and the rules the way I see it if i can go around someone i will confrontation is a waste time and energy
and cyclists break the rules of the road as much as drivers


ps im a cyclist

But you still haven't explained.

What "comeuppance" would you deliver this man?

It's a simple question.

Ah you're having a laugh.
I said he wouldn't shout me down in the same was as he did to that woman.
If that isn't clear enough for you, I can't help you.

As for his comenuppence?
I didn't say that it would be me to give it to him but that if he kept shouting people down in the street like that, that someday he is going to meet someone who will put a jumped up little prig like him in his place.

(Although, I wouldn't mind it being me)

In unrelated (?) a friend told me there was a serious 3 cyclist crash on the Stillorgan carriageway today near UCD. Anyone know what happened?

So you wouldn't mind assaulting someone on the street who annoyed you.

Well then we're back to square one.

You'd end up before the courts for that, that was my original statement.

......the Unspeakable after the Uneatable.

Both are complete and utter Outside Flankers, Merchant Bankers, Postage Frankers and words tha rhyme in that direction. Also truckers, stunts and frolics come to mind. The hold up behind them was a classic. Both should have been punished severely. Buckets of week-old vomit poured over them, or month-old cat **** fired on the harradins windscreen........

Its a horror to think that, because it was wearing a hi-viz vest the harradin is in some sort of public facing security job somewhere in the inner city. HOw the hell do her co-workers (victims) put up with her??????

Ironically this guy is exactly the sort of cyclist that motorists love. He knows all the rules of the road, he won't break red lights, he won't go on the pavement just because it would make things easier for him. He's a law-abiding citizen.

Karma for what?

StewartGriffin

I met a woman driving on the wrong side of the street once. I smiled and gestured for her to move over. She looked confused, then smiled back and moved over. Some of us behave this way because we are civilised.

In fairness, at least he puts up videos of other cyclists doing stupid things.

You can tell by his rapid head movements he's pissed because nobody is angering him and giving him a chance to rant.

Then he falls over... what's not to like?

Verbally abusing the driver? She's in the wrong, its a two way street and the obstruction is on her side..

He's pointing out facts to her, you obviously don't cycle a lot :rolleyes:

When I'm cycling, some people in cars pi55 me off.

Such is life. Never went out looking to be pi55ed off. Never felt the need to involve youtube when I was.

You obviously don't get out much if someone being in the wrong is a major issue for you. I happens multiple times on every journey. Grow up and learn to deal with it in a mature manner.

He made the situation much worse by his aggressive attitude.

If she had just admitted she was wrong in the first place then all would have been well, but to scream and shout that he is 'threatening and bullying her' is absolute sh*te.

Don't get out much? Im out everyday on my bike, 90% of the time through town..I've dealt with everything under the sun with regards to vehicles and their views/actions of cyclists. As I mentioned in the post a simple apology would have done, but no..

And I don't remember saying it was a major issue? She is in the wrong, put a motorbike instead of the cyclist and tell me the exact same thing would not have happened?

Rocket19

God, that cyclist is a jacka$s. Obviously the woman was in the wrong, but as far as I can tell, he wasn't in any immediate danger as to justify how aggressively he confronted her. No-one appointed him vigilante of the roads, ffs.

No idea where she was going with the "I'm a woman..." thing, though. Ridiculous. However, if someone shouted at me like that on the road, I think I'd probably cry from shock, tbh.

Going by his other vids, seems none of South Dublin is safe from this guy with his retarded head gear and love of an argument.

Then surely you must be used to poor driving/cycling enough to shrug it off and get on with your day. This guy practically had a stroke when he met a bad driver stopped in the middle of the road.

They do say that women stick together whether through right or wrong, and i think you are siding with this woman because you think/have the feeling that a woman is being threatened but the only reason most people are slagging said Bad woman driver off is because she was an a$$ and also a person that has no respect for other road users.

I do, the majority of the time. But there are times when the action of the driver is so easily avoidable but they do it anyway because they believe their car is the superior vehicle.

That cyclist is a complete c*nt imo. And who gives him the right to go putting people like this poor lady on youtube for public ridicule and he himself hides behind his camera and a youtube username?.

I hope she reports him for a road rage incident, and he's provided her with enough video evidence too.

Furthermore if that lady has an angry partner, brother or male friends he won't be too hard to find a cyclist on the Merrion Road on a racing bike and Contour Roam (he provides this info on his other vids), he won't be feeling too f*cking smart about himself then.

If she was one of my female friends I'd clip that c*nts wings for him fairly sharpish.

Really? You'd hunt him down and kick the ****e out of him for asking your woman "whats the fookin' story, bud?" and she responded by screaming that he was attacking her?

As Seamus said, I was under the impression real martial artists were above that sort of crap.
