    Yet another image not showing up?!? Since the forum was 'improved' this keeps happening but it never happened before.
    I've looked on a PC and an iPad and it didn't work on either.

    Edit: It's working now. Strange. I wonder if Boardman666's pictures are visible again?

    I still can't see it. Considering it was an answer to my post I'm extremely disappointed.

    Oh dear. Lots off footage of near misses and ,RLJing. I don't think this will be a good thing for cyclists.
    I remember a while ago someone from a TV company came on here trying to buy helmet cam footage and was told where to go (long walk, short pier kind of suggestions).

    This is the kind of inflammatory stuff I'm coming across 'whhhooaaa love, whaddya think your doing' shouted at women drivers for daring to attempt to share the road/

    i'm fairly new to it, but i think that video shows the good and the not so good sides of the helmet cam. on a positive note, the penultimate segment - the lorry overtake - really was quite dangerous and unpleasant and i'm glad that it's captured on film (although i'm not sure what the next stage is - unless there's a company visible to complain to).

    however, the first two offence seemed pretty innocuous! harder to tell when you weren't there, but i really don't think the 'poor road positioning' was to tempt cycles up the inside - if anything i reckon the motorist was trying to give a bit of extra space. ok, it may not have been the best way of accomodating other road users, but..
