Team Sky - training ride, city traffic, police stop

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSrA2GO8nyk

I am thankful that I don't ride and had to deal with city traffic anymore. Before we start casting stones, let me just say this, I have done everything these guys have done before and I am not proud of it. Just felt lucky that I am still alive.

Looks like the Sky guys were pretty tranquillo about it. Let the cop say his thing and go on.

Perhaps it was a felony drug stop. Looking for asthma inhalers.

what? "everything these guys have done before" ? You mean like riding your bike in a pretty normal fashion. Sorry, I realize thats against the law an all but that is really a nothing incident imo.

On the back of the one jersey it says, "lawless." Rider name, or just coincidence?

It's Australia, not Britain.

It was pretty unnecessary to play frogger thru the crosswalk when the pedestrians had the right of way... Overall not a huge deal, but I'm not surprised they were stopped given the police department's specific focus on cyclists during the TDU.
