That was very American "Dawson's Creek" cheese feeling video. Did make me want to jump on the bike a little though.

i live round the corner from where that started....

Please dont take this wrong, i saw your a Learner, and wanted to just point out a few bits thats could help.

please dont over take people turning right.... (1.56)
Amber lights mean STOP, (2.33) there was pleanty of time to stop too.
dont stop on a round about (end)

something i was tought all those years ago, never over take if you have to be flat out, if the vehicle your over taking speeds up, your stuck looking at on coming traffic.

I liked the vid but it seemed to me that one or two unnecessary risks were taken for the sake of it.
I'm a little more cautious than you but then I reckon its better to be late than late.

[MattJ]

For once I agree with covdude. Your riding doesn't seem very good to be honest but you're a learner so that's to be expected. But please don't try and get your knee down when you're obviously not very experienced. And if you're trying to get your knee down when your head is still in that position then your body must be very twisted. If you're going to do it at least do it right. Your head should be next to the mirror.

Yea i don't normally ride risky... i only posted because I knew these parts i taken was a risky move. If I posted how I normally ride i'd think you change channel after 1 minute of boredom lol. I'll post one soon and you guys can let me know

You have bigger priorities at the moment than learning to get your knee down.

As to that yellow box overtake, I never overtake when there's a junction. Even though you could see (and I agree with Bubbs to an extent) that there were cars coming so they wouldn't of turned, it would of been one hell of a stupid move if they did turn into the oncoming lane (despite on coming cars) knocking you, the overtaker (as they wouldn't of seen you) off your bike, down the road and quite possibly into oncoming traffic. Not just an over the bonnet crash then, you're being deflected into cars coming the opposite way.

Never overtake with junctions, especially more so as a learner. People are just too stupid. Regardless of the fact you'll go through hell sorting blame for a claim.

I would say that in actual fact his riding is generally quite good. The so called 'risks' he took aren't risky at all.

I would personally not overtake on the RHS in the box junction but the approach was slow.

The amber light was clearly on a one way street where it would take ages for the lights to change. I would do that.

The roundabout is a bit of a target fixation thing, you can't see it on that video but there is quite a steep incline so where he nearly went into the barrier it's actually quite uphill.

He wasn't overly confident cornering so I suggested going round progressively faster on a quiet roundabout.
I see much worse riding every day. And the overtake with the bus, the road is so massive I usually overtake between cars anyway.
Oh, I'm the rider in front.

That was pretty uncomfortable to watch tbh, and the choice of music was dire, I feel a little queezy

If that Toyota had flashed the Citroen, I guarantee he would have gone without looking and you'd have been underneath him. Exercise caution and patience. Not every car is an overtaking target.

[Richtea]

Just watched the video, good quality but I dont like the cheesy music in these types of vids prefer to hear the bike (even if it is a125).

Didnt think the riding was too bad for a learner and I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone on here who hasn't gone through an amber light like that at some time or another.

However I have to agree with the comments about the overtake on the right of the Citroen, dangerous for the reason above, all it needed was for him to be flashed out by the oncoming cars and you're stuffed.
