Love the skating, but I'm not so impressed with the treatment of
pedestrians in this video:

This was an excellent event last year, mostly for cyclists, but quite
a few of us skated it too. The little guy in this video is miniMikey,
spinning his pedals. I may not make it this year as son no. 2 is due to
be born on the day, but will try to be at the Wellington Arch on Hyde
Park Corner at 10.50 for an 11.00 departure along the route. Here's the
video from 2007:

Yet another left hook - check out this driver's approach. I think she
saw me, overtook me, and then thought I was either stationery or just
disappeared, and perhaps could be bullied out of her way. Thankfully
stupid driving like this is usually easily predictable and avoidable. I
slightly regret not following her into the petrol station and asking her
on camera why she did that. Plus of course telling her to search out her
registration no. on youtube to see the video and the comments other
people made about her driving, or is that a little bit too evil?
