Default Clip of Jeremy Clarkson berating pro cyclist for riding in lockdown surfaces;

Remember that time that began in March 2020, and then again a bit more between roughly January-March of this year when some people thought recreational cycling was against the lockdown rules? Well it turns out that the motoring journalist and notable morality specialist Jeremy Clarkson was one of them, moaning that the cyclist in this clip - filmed in the Cotswolds during lockdown for the new Amazon Prime series 'Clarkson's Farm' - was making a non-essential journey:

"Everyone's told to stay at home unless their journey's essential. That doesn't apply to cyclists, obviously!", says Clarkson.

Even if Clarkson was correct, unfortunately for him the man riding past happened to be Charlie Quarterman, a professional cyclist from Oxford who rides for Trek-Segafredo. One follower added "...not sure what’s more awkward, him owning himself while being a smart-arse as per or the fact he’s pretty much in cardiac arrest putting up a small sign."

The eight-episode first series of Clarkson's Farm sees Clarkson trying to run a 1000 acre farm, hitting various hurdles along the way. Reviews have been mixed (link is external) so far...
