Nice vid, where the 2 sets of gates are there is only one now and the gate has gone from the main road onto the path also further along again the last gate has also been removed, 2 benches have got rotten and will not be there for much longer,

I’ve been going there from when I was 9 to when I was 18. The first time there was a Thomas scene in Carey’s window and the toilet door was open in it. 2 years after I thought I saw a plant jar with water plants in the Co Op before using Catherine’s Patisserie toilets.

Ok

As a Rifleman ... Bristol must be one of the worst Cities in the World to knock out 140 to the minite over a few miles for sure.

Modern Best uniform british rifles

That's not 140

Poor guy. They're not paid by the hour you know, trying to get from A to B on time while forced to travel at cycling speed is pretty stressful.

never ever cycled down that hill. Cycled up the hill many many times. One of my fav hills in the bristol area. A real challenge.

Spoiled by seeing so much of the police

Love the bugles, well done, nice and snappy.

Just seen this, recognised Richie Cleal and Mickie Minchin in the reserve coy

Hi, I've just subbed your channel - please sub me back - many thanks

Most are fucking shit

just seen this im second from last

Did he manage to do it ???????

nice vid

Legend

thanks. great vid. I was next to you.

wish it did go that fast, lol

Looking very smart! How long have women been in the band now?

haha that is quite cool. Where did it come from?

With your timelapse video was it like 1 picture a second? I'm just experimenting with my dslr to find the right settings

This cyclist unfortunately has more gears than he has brain cells

I bet that path gets slippery as!

not indicating is bad enough, but climbing the pavement at that speed was definitively his worse offense on this video.

It makes for a interesting trip riding in the high winds....... :)

Crap riding for a motorcyclist who at least as much as you would know that a car like that posed a threat. You look at the person ahead of you and what they're up against - especially if overtaking. I rode motorcycles for 10 years and I know for a fact you don't fall off if you slow down.

To be fair you did change road position 3 times (each time with a life saver check which is more than I can say I've seen cyclists do in Bristol so awesome awareness dude) and correct position for a cycle if there's no obstruction is to the left of centre, I saw you move over to give a car space but didn't move back in and by then the bike was past and beeped...... Perhaps you should have moved in sooner but as a biker you left plenty of room, certainly wasn't riding erratic and seemed perfectly safe so I think he was just being a dick. From personal experience I'm so jaded with cyclist's I have no confidence in them knowing what's around them and them staying in a reasonable road position so I give them wide birth, So many are focused on the task of peddling at the detriment to their safety it boggles my mind on my motorbike commute to and from work. I'm sure similar can be said for some bikers as they can be overly aggressive in their riding style but there's usually a lot of training, money and time gone into getting a full licence and with a push bike there is nothing in place and it shows on the road. Sorry for the long reply but it's great to see a good cyclist on the road.

I struggle to see myself ever riding anything else - even though on a daily basis I'm always on tarmac, the surface can get surprisingly rough, and my available level of concentration is often less than its should be (or rather I want to be able to enjoy the ride), so it's good to have fattish tyres, good brakes and manoeuvrability. That, plus I'm rather heavy and I carry stuff... And I'm always surprised to see canal paths touted as practical commuting routes !

I feel so lucky with my commute - except that the handful of cars I encounter on a daily basis often seem to feel they have a right to maintain 30MPH at all times and like to drive up close at 15mph to express their disdain. I suppose this demonstrates why they're happy to drive so close to other vehicles - because they're used to doing it - and hence why whenever they escape the traffic for even 100 yards they want to step on the gas ...

It's about time they dealt with those horrible rubber speed-bumps - and the ones by UWE are seriously annoying too - though I almost always manage to exit in excess of 20MPH without any effort.

What's the path for ? It's on the downhill side of the road. As for the driving ... evolution working backwards ...

"Everyman his own road roller" to paraphrase a DIY book from a bygone age. Horrible though it is for cyclists until the job's finished and we've had a decent amount of rain to clean it up, there is the thought of it damaging the paintwork and carpets of wheel-spinning boy racers' German cars ... Meanwhile South Glos have been carefully masking the kerbs and covers with gaffer tape and pro-actively sealing the pavements in a part of Fishponds with tar.

Yeah, could have been a tad clearer! I was fortunate in that i did it last year and am local so wasnt watching the signage!

Thanks for posting this. I managed to miss that left turn at 8:07, along with another rider, and now I know why! That sign is pretty well hidden. Got back to Bristol in the end, but only after a fun bit of dual carriageway!

Same. Its a good one!

I will be taking part in this route tomorrow.

I probably should have googled it, I was there the other week and was wondering what it was but never went up to it or searched to find out what it was, when I was there I was gutted I didn't have my camera on me as I wanted to get a time lapse.

Cheers! I think the "giant ball thing" is the Bristol Planetarium, but it works perfectly well as a shiny ball thing :P

Cheers. Dynamic Range was a big issue on the day I made this one! - decided to expose the foreground correctly on this one!

I love the clouds reflected in the giant ball thing :p

Nice, shame there was so many clouds, would have been nice if there were a few moving across the sky. Can't change the weather though can you.

Yeah, the weather wasn't excellent, but quite a bit better than the forecast :P

I did the Bristol to Portishead bike ride pity it was raining :(
