I think the answer is in this description perhaps?

...but then given the source I thin kthey regard anyone in a hoody as a possible criminal.

Was he carrying a bag marked "swag" as well?

Thumbs Up for CCTV, great job on crime prevention and detection there. Bet the owner gets a bunch of FPNs though the post though.

There are many hundreds of cameras around that area of Bristol, so I'm surprised they don't have a picture.

Probably don't want to arrest them for fear of being called racist by the PC liberal brigade... easier to give out speeding tickets. I'm surprised they didn't say it was his fault for owning a motorbike.

Cyclist moved out into the street, so I'm guessing he swerved.

Personally I'd have just kept going whilst making some effort to avoid them, but remaining on the road and doing what is safest for me. No way am I going to die for a cyclist walking into the street like that. At worst I get a claim against my insurance, but that's way better than being dead or seriously injured.
