carosio Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Observe the scooter (headlight on) as it passes through the lights at the junction with Abbey Lane , then freeze the frame just before it goes out of the pic. https://i.imgur.com/r0gqkQU.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altus Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Looks like the cyclist is slipstreaming the scooter to me. Competitive cyclists do it to each other all the time - that's why they ride in groups. Following riders save about 1/3rd of the effort required to maintain the same speed if they were on their own.
