See plenty of these attention seeking twats on the road with their go pros. My wife is a mad keen cyclist and it annoys her when she sees cyclists post stuff like this, its hard enough road cycling without having cunts like this antagonise motorists.

Why is he in the middle of the road the prick?
If a car sat behind him waiting to 'safely' overtake cunts like this would moan about being tailgated.
Lycra wearing nonces.

The replies to his attention seeking are hilarious. A handful agreeing with him and the rest ripping the piss out of him. Posting the vans details for doing nothing wrong just makes him look even more of a cunt.

But then you get the idiots like the ones in the video, deliberately looking for attention. The comments about the video from fellow twitter users tend to be against the cyclist in this case.

Cancel culture innit?
When he's such a smug, self entitled, cycling twat who loves to smell his own farts he probably thought by putting the video up and identifying the vehicles involved his fellow cyclists would rally around in condemning the drivers to trial by social media. He calls out the number plates and identifies the van without beeping or blurring out, purely for the intention of public shaming.

A meter from the kerb is ok, keeps you out of all the shit which gives you a puncture and a bit of space to manoeuvre if there’s a pothole or something. I usually get closer or pull into a gateway if it’s a narrow road and there is a car behind.
I follow that family on Twitter and they come across as a right bunch of wierdos, he’s in the wrong there though, 100%. We all need to be more considerate on the road, getting passed by a van doing 50mph which you could reach out and touch is fucking scary.

1m out from the kerb is fine, any closer and you ride in all the shit in the gutter. 1m gives me somewhere to move to if someone overtakes too close. There's nothing as scary as some prick in a van or bus overtaking far too close at 50mph. I'll move out if there's a traffic island coming up as I'm sick of being nearly turfed into the gutter through them.
But it's about consideration. I know I'm going slowly so I'll pull in and wave people past if it's safe. The lycra wankers who insist on riding in the middle of the road and won't move over for anyone, taking pleasure in the tailback behind them, are all that's wrong with cyclists.

Nonce behaviour.
