Absolutely classic

Wish the roads were that free of traffic now!

Fantastic. I was trying to figure out what year that might be. Mid to late 60's I guess?

I had a tricycle just like Toms, but managed to crash it terminally in next door's garden.

This was on the related videos: I can't say I've seen a deerstalker helmet before. I wonder if that has a SHARP rating.

There were kitemarked deerstalkers, which might still be legal.

Excellent!

Look at the lack of street furniture! No signs and white lines reminding people how to drive

Interesting to see how things like positioning have changed over the years.

If the deerstalker has a British standard kitemark then it is still legal to wear.

Must say I don't hold my arm out as long as Tom does.

Why does the bad rider have to be the bloke in the lancer jacket while the dork in the top half of a PVC Black Prince gets a chick?

That was filmed around Wembley. The last street they turn out of was from Wyld Way into the Harrow Road. Now have a look at google streetview and see how they road has been narrowed to allow for extra parking and traffic calming etc.

Brilliant vid. Thanks for posting.

Was that you in the factory, at the hatch?
