King of the salmon

I saw something today which tops anything I've seen before from a cyclist. A guy on a mountain bike filtering in the wrong direction between 2 lanes of moving traffic on a one-way street in Dublin!
Is this a record? Does he take the title?

After the smidsy thread, seems like one way of being sure that drivers see you.

Only if he had an indignant ' who do you think you are beeping at me ' look on his face whilst wearing a hi viz jacket in the blazing sun.

Ah no! More of a dumb gaze, and no hi-viz. A Pozzato moment, just a podium. Pity.

I think the chap I encountered in Santry salmoning with a step ladder laid across the handlebars of his MTB would give your man a run for his money.

A guy on a junky MTB going down the Winetavern St. a few months ago, with both vbrakes unhooked due to massively buckled wheels - braking with both feet instead when the light turned red. He couldn't stop but went through the opposite traffic unharmed.

I wish I could have seen my face after I saw this.

As long as he was wearing a helmet, reflective vest and had a decent set of lights he is ok.

Wooly hat, dark winter jacket and a pair of jeans - sure he's grand.

As long as his kidneys were covered like his mammy told him it's all good.
