'Proper' bicycles are well expensive, and you can spend more and more modifying them. My local shop has just a set of rims for 100k+! ???? The bike I have ridden for 13+ years had a value of about 13,000B all included. 2 wheels, a seat, handlebars and more gears than I need for pottering around. ???? As for the w⚓ in the clip, he obviously sees 'success' as more important than sporting integrity. ???? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingstonkid Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Not sure that it was intentional but the rider is an idiot you do not weave around on your bike. You ride a str8 line yes when you start to really pump your bike will sway but you are supposed to make sure that you have control of it. It will be interesting to see what happens. I take it riders here are not sponsored by bike shops. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My all graphite road bike was 62k baht. These guys that compete at that level would be paying hundreds of thousands of baht for their bikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrunchWrapSupreme Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Thai style man. Few months ago a footballer didn't like what another did, decided an elbow to the face was appropriate. My guess is that some fine parenting leads to such behavior. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamfalang Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I used to put tacks all over the road, except on the very far left side......riders thought I was crazy riding there, then everyone flatted and I won!!!!! Next year I used lasers to flat everyone's tires. A good bike is 100,000.......new wheels maybe 60,000 more........ winning....priceless!!! Even bike racing without complete jerks is super dangerous.......but NOT as dangerous as driving a motorbike in Thailand. #fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomer6969 Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Feel free to Google "Groenewegen Fabio Jakobsen". Obviously most guys here "know nothing" about cycling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think the cycling a r s e h o l e would feel quite at home on the football/soccer pitch with what the players get away with today with some fouls considered as 'good' fouls.

soi3eddie Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I've got no skin in the game and find the cycle racing fraternity quite hilarious. Most are usually doped up and think they are in the Tour de France. Looks to me like the downed biker thought he was Neymar (Brazilian footballer known for taking a dive). It did happen fast and the aggressive rider was being a tosser but then after driving in London with suicidal cyclists (MAMILS) everywhere it comes as no surprise. Get up and get over it IMO.
