Cycling Mikey is a sanctimonious dick. He was always in the right, but the way he always lectured people rather than simply filming and reporting was never gonna win people’s hearts.

I’ve now heard a couple of long interviews with him and he seems a genuinely nice and reasonable guy.

He doesn’t need to win hearts. He wants to change behaviout and I think behaviour is changing in London. Whether he’s had any impact I don’t know - is it even measurable? I don’t watch his stuff either. But I respect him.

Saw Mikey's own video. The guy's an idiot. It's one thing to video and report a driving infraction, but launching your bike at an offending car is f'ing stupid. They both need a word from plod.

Funny how it looks so different from a different angle. Mikey's head cam definitely makes him look more innocent. He's got the driver's registration and face on camera; why on earth did he do that?

lol at Cycling Mikey’s POV “And there’s a CHILD in the car”

30 seconds later he chucks his bike at said child-carrying vehicle and then starts shouting “fuck off” at the next driver 🤣 yes very child friendly Mikey.

He will just get stoved in by going too far at some point.

He has anger issues and needs to have a look at himself, it’s a bit weird and obsessive. I agree with his sentiment but the way he does stuff is pretty stupid.

Would his actions be deemed as “Criminal Damage” given there must be several hundred pounds of damage to the Fiat??
