Footage from the incident sees the anonymous person suddenly cross over four lanes of traffic at the dangerous junction 25 in Bredbury.
The female cyclist, reportedly aged in her twenties, ignored all safety signs and entered the busy motorway where numerous cars are travelling at high speeds.
Shockingly, she isn't wearing a helmet at the time.
Despite not only endangering herself but other drivers, the cyclist is able to safely reach the hard shoulder.

She even waves to drivers to thank them for allowing her to pass.
Louise Kay, 48, was forced to suddenly stop to avoid the cyclist last September.
She recently shared the footage on social media to warn motorists about the risks of driving on the motorway.
She told the Manchester Evening News: "It was just unbelievable, there's no other word for it.
"It made my blood run cold.
"I could see her out of the corner of my eye so I started to slow down.
"And she just waved at me and carried on riding right in front of me. She honestly must have had a death wish.
"I shouted at her but she had her headphones in and was just completely oblivious."
Under the Highway Code rule 253, motorways must not be used by cyclists, pedestrians, horse riders and provisional drivers.
