Video: Cyclists stumble across couple going at it hammer and tongs

If you go down to the woods today ...

You can stumble across all kinds of things while riding on a trail – bears and bees among them.

But a group of riders in Ireland found a couple who were more occupied with the birds and the bees, going at it hammer and tong by the side of the trail.

Cue a lot of giggling as the riders carry on – we thought one of them was going to have a seizure at one point.

needing protection for his helmet, rather than a helmet for his protection, you mean?

 

There must be a bell-end gag in there somewhere too.

I'm just thinking of that bit of bike path etiquette (when someone's pulled over with a problem) asking, "have you got everything you need?".

So long as someone didn't mistake 2 cheeks for a bit of a 'modern art' bike rack!

Typical lazy Brits. If you are going to have sex in the woods go into the woods - don't flop down right next to the bike path.

  Looks like he WAS into the wood, rather than flopping down!

It's a different take on the "Cyclist films moment when someone pulls out right in front of him" video.

Doesn't even look a "comfy" piece of grass they're using . . .  and the trail the guys are riding is clearly reasonably well used . .  I guess they enjoy people wwatching.

group night ride a few years ago... car with steamed-up windows in layby. 12 sets of HIDs and LED helmet-mounted lights suddenly lighting it up at once...never seen anyone move so quickly.

When I've heard people talk about 'bonking' and cycling, I've clearly completely misunderstood.....

Could've been a new meaning for 'helmet cam'.

A brief detour to a secluded beach on Mallorca meant I don't remember much from the remainder of that (cycle) ride. It was also a photo shoot - they were using a lot of exposure.

Scared the sh!t out of a young couple in a local car-park a few years ago by putting offroad lights in to strobe mode as we came out of the woods...  1

I once nearly had to bunny-hop 2 sets of legs across a very secluded bit of tow path near where I live - fortunately there was just enough path to get round.

Never seen anyone down what bit of path before or since - most people use the wider path the other side.

I also rather surprised a couple on an evening ride around Ladybower reservoir years ago.
