Dabbing Melbourne cyclist.jpgMelbourne cyclist dabs for Google StreetView car
A Melbourne cyclist has made the most of a short ride behind a Google StreetView car by adopting a dab pose for the photographs it was taking.
The Telegraph reports that while riding along Cecil Place in December 2016, the unnamed rider either executed a whole series of dabs or quite possibly one long one.
It looks like he only returned his hands to the bars at the end of the road at the junction with the rather busier Chapel Street.
In 2011, Tom Boonen popped up on StreetView clad in his Belgian national champion’s jersey, while more recently, Jeremy Corbyn was snapped on his Raleigh near his home in Islington.
Website catalogues Google StreetView images before and after cycle improvements
Alex has written for more cricket publications than the rest of the road.cc team combined. Despite the apparent evidence of this picture, he doesn't especially like cake.

Definitions aside, that is a ridiculous amount of cardboard. Is the double wall really necessary to protect the product?

You'd just get dog walkers on it with a 30m lead.

Alledgedly, dabbing comes from cannabis culture where a 'dab' of hash oil often causes the inhaler to cough (into their elbow is the recommended technique). Believe it or not, the dance move has been made illegal in Saudi Arabia: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/saudi-arabia-dab-arrest-singer-abdallah-al-shaharani-dance-move-onstage-taif-festival-anti-narcotics-a7885686.html
Dab? What is a dab?
I beleive it stands for Doing A Bolt. As in Usain Bolt.
Something to do with sherbert as I recall.
Not a digital radio then
Meee!
Shortly after this was taken the cyclist was fined $3000 under draconian Australian cycling safety laws.
