You cant go out on the streets and be scared. What will happen will happen. Ive been riding 22 years on london streets. Had a handful of wipeouts. Nothing too serious. Bruises and cuts.But I know alot of accidents are born out of complacency. Myself included. Never take anything for granted. Ride sensibly in built up areas. And ALWAYS keep your eyes on the road and your surroundings. Adjust your speed too. Dont ride like a maniac. 25mph on an open road with few people and cars is very different to 25mph in an area where a car door can suddenly open. Or someone can fly out in front of you. Be aware of this. And you will be alot safer and others too from you.
@@JuarytheKing Oh cool! You must be pleased with the new changes around Bank. I was planning to go there tomorrow to take a look now it has all opened.
If only more people realised that commuting on a bicycle in London doesn’t have to be scary or dangerous (depending on the route) and can actually be quite enjoyable.
Absolutely. So many of the main routes now are segregated. It's the guys that whizz around on the silent electric scooters without any thought for other commuters that are the worst to deal with these days!
Haha. Thanks mate. Sorry it's been a while! 😄 I've got some exciting plans for this channel, so will be seeing a lot more videos! I'll be upping the image quality soon too - just waiting for a camera mount to be delivered...🙂
I love Bromptons. I´m going to test one of the bikes for hire in London.
Enjoy! Looks like they are a really good deal at I think £5 per day. I'm sure you'll have fun :)

Very true. I really enjoy it. As long as you keep your wits about you, and expect the unexpected, it's a great place to ride :)
