Bizarre that he passed on the inside again, when if he had any sense he'd have realised he had been a few seconds from very serious injury, or worse.

I see that there actually is a shared-use facility to avoid that corner. Maybe it's a pain sharing with pedestrians there, or perhaps there are muggings. Seems like not a bad option if you want to avoid sharing a narrow lane with trucks though.

That is just suicidal, riding like that. I wish the cameraman would turn the camera on his own bike though, presumably a 3-wheel recumbent, that'd be more interesting than watching someone trying hard to become roadkill. ...I think I have a touch of recumbentitis.

Jesus, the shame of being lectured by a recumbent rider.

I'd rather be run over.
