Re: Motorcycle videos
I really admire your dedication to posting your videos and asking for comments. Thanks. I enjoy the production process. Some generate discussion here and elsewhere, others produce nothing. Their main purpose though is for use with my IAM Associates (getting them to watch specific ones as homework b...

Re: Motorcycle videos
Something a little different this time. The riding footage has been speeded up x3. Effectively giving riding speeds of 0 to 180mph, to display the smooth way that road position should blend and not jump or be jerky. The 'chipmunk' is the SatNag lady at hypersonic speed

Yep, all the clues are thee. In or out, but exercise caution (as always)

Re: Motorcycle videos
There are often arguments about view, safety, etc. that may influence your decision which leg to take. The van in my clip got stuck because going the way he did the angle is horrible, and many are like that. I genuinely intersted if anyone has any legal reason why the van couldn't have turned before...

Re: Motorcycle videos
So if I don't want to wait behind the white van, I can nip up that handy bit on the right? https://maps.app.goo.gl/aYKN5k6HkGK8Srsu9?g_st=ic Not in your linked junction as there is a handy Keep Left Blue Arrow ;) Even accepting what Chapter 3 says, I would expect the normal reaction from other road...

Re: Motorcycle videos
I'm only looking at it on a phone screen, but it looks as if the 'give way' broken lines go all across the width. However, is there any keep left blue circle sign? What about traffic emerging, could they go either side too? I'll not play my cards yet, but probe you for some further info ;) The Give...

Re: Motorcycle videos
Me saying the 3rd van should have turned right before the green triangle / Godcake, caused a lot of discussion on YouTube. What are everyone's thoughts?

On YouTube, yet again someone is questioning what I said about the van could have turned before the green triangle. These country/village junctions are poorly understood by many.

Re: Motorcycle videos
Nice to see you keeping well back, so the van can see you in it's mirrors. Far too many bikers come up too quick and close for the overtake, giving little chance for the van to be aware of their presence before they overtake. Given the acceleration available there should be no need to get so close ...

Re: Motorcycle videos
Some video footage of me on an everyday social ride in the countryside and some vans that I encountered along the way. Two resulted in overtakes and one just needed some time and space.
