Yes I agree, sometimes I think bikers are shown too much sympathy, although they are more vulnerable and are sometimes not given enough respect by cars, but equally there are these types

Being a biker, all I can compliment him on is wearing full protection.
Other than that................he's a bad example..........

I've ridden the Cat and Fiddle and it's a road you have to ride at 90%, otherwise (as the video shows) it will bite you!

BTW, he was a VERY lucky boy NOT to hit that car, otherwise he'd just be another statistic!

I think he did react quite well to get over the other side of the car but yes very lucky and lucky that the landing was that forgiving
