Reckless Cyclist

idiots on the move

 

That Shell station on the left along Boon Lay is the de-facto water / gathering point for the road bikers. This will be their usual rest point after they rode down from Lim Chu Kang area, on Sunday mornings typically. My own observations are that most of such cyclists kept to the left and they do observe the traffic rules (stopping at lights etc.) 

The 2nd rider who tried to follow the 1st rider to turn right at the major junction is obviously a moron trying his luck when the right turn green arrow is already flashing. Ended up he needs to stop awkwardly in the middle divider. Stupid moron.

Happened this morning. 

Is he conti car driver? Because never signal? 

Or just no basic theory? 

Now I really think cyclists need to get basic theory if want to cycle on road..... 

He didn't even turn his head to check traffic. 

Hope taxi driver no penalty. 

 

I will signal when driving. 

I certainly signal and check-6 

when cycling.

He want to turn right or not he not suppose to cut across 2 lane also.

Number 1 rule.  Cyclist  must keep left at all time.

They suppose to cycle  on the left to the next traffic crossing and push their  bike across

PCN has speed limit of 25km/h.

If the couple abruptly stopped in the pathway, not such the 5 can do.

Doubt if the other bikers are doing 25km/h , lol mine agak agak is already coming to 30 and highs of 35++ also in some parts (Road bikes I mean) and I presume some are touching even higher than 35-40 as I'm left in the dust when I see them overtake me :beaten:

How come you are "forced' to ride on ECP , there are many other paths even all the way to Changi , anyways you can also ride on the service road parallel but there are humps and car obstruction at times .... hmm.... usually I start 6am and end about 7.30am for BF with my friend, always safety in numbers

I find it very therapeutic to watch the cyclist slowly falling down. Is it just me?

Just in the am, saw a grab bicyclist nonchalantly cut across traffic junction onto oncoming green light.

Its horrible.

I had quite a bad fall when I was cycling around 20km/h about 26 or 27 years ago... 

Was on mountain bike, on dedicate cycling path....towards Fort Road 

Then a pedestrian strayed onto the path (we all facing same direction) I was coming up from behind and suddenly he took another step right and swung his right arm out to point towards Mac Donald.... 

Hit my left elbow.... So basically I "turn left" with the handle bar and flip twice on the ground..... 

My point is.... 

If any sudden change of direction or motion...... 

People from behind have little to no reaction time..... 

Everyone has a part to play.
