'Cyclist rage' thug caught on helmet camera

A cyclist, who only wants to be named as kmcyc uploaded the footage on YouTube after the incident near the Brewery shopping centre in Romford last Wednesday July 27.



The footage shows the cyclist negotiating the roundabout on London Road, Romford when he is confronted by the driver and a passenger of a silver Ford Fiesta. It then shows the passenger getting out of the car and then going over to the cyclist.

Kmcyc said: “It left a bad taste apologising for nothing. Still words are only words at least it didn’t come to what it so easily looked like it would and my lack of physical reaction brought a peaceful end to the incident.” Kmcyc, who has been cycling for more than 12 years, installed a camera on his helmet about two years ago after a series of near misses with drivers,

The video footage has been handed into the police. Kmcyc said: “It is crazy that someone would behave like this. You hear a lot about cyclist blackspots but this is crazy when you see something like this happening first hand.”

I'm a big guy, if he did that to me, he would be missing teeth. Needs a dentist anyway.

What a wee hard retard. They should ban it from driving for a year and let's see how it gets on on a bike.
