OK car slaves you can have this one, I may well have reversed back over his front wheel myself. :lol:

Just the one mind, it's not open season.

Phew. Lucky he was wearing a flat cap.

He probably wasn't excepting the cyclist to chase him down the side road, in order to hit him.

Did the DPD chap, Mirror Signal Manoeuvre?

How ****ing embarrassing. You go to all the trouble of getting Ziggy to Quantum Leap you to the Twenty First century from 1871 and in the first ten seconds you get knocked off your bike by a DPD courier driver.

Amazing! Hope he was okay, but that is amazing.
Do those old steeds not have brakes? Van at fault but Lance didn't even try and stop.
Laurel and Hardy-esque.

I don't wear a helmet, I admit, but would you not wear a helmet if you were on a 150 year-old antique, 5 or 6 feet off the ground, seemingly with no brakes, in a city?!

Hilarious

They aren't old.
Unsurprisingly there's a decent sized penny farthing scene among those unique individuals who all have intricate manicured beards, sculptured handlebar moustaches, check shirts, braces, rolled trousers and no socks.

Oh those individuals, they are so individual.

That’s just ****ing hilarious all round. Why was someone filming it?!

Penny Farthing and headphones just doesn't work on multiple levels.

Under normal circumstances.

But as Stat Bro has already pointed out, there are so many blatantly obvious disclaimers to 'under normal circumstances', and that's before we even get to the facial hair :lolol:

And I say this as a man sporting a full Santa Claus. (It was planned as a Bruno tribute but age catches up with us all :down:

)
