sorry but the vast amount of public funds directed at a specific group of people who do not actually intend to use the resource created is fundamentally wrong - especially when it has been done with their safety in mind.Why? I use cycle lanes when painted on the road but not when they are on the footpaths as they are not safe for myself or the pedestrians sharing them.
Would you like to walk your toddler on a shared footpath with cycles doing over 20mph?
We cycle for fitness so need to push on to keep the heart rate up before you mention slowing down.
I guess car drivers feel as angry when they get held up behind our tractors.
Why can't we just all get on?
Idiots in and on all types of vehicles.
I ride bikes, motorbikes and drive cars,motorhome, tractors, combines and articulated trucks.
I have experienced like most of us have idiots on and in all.
The new rules have made me review every aspect of what I do , cycling and driving , a regular cyclist is well aware of the consequences if he has an accidentent and will try his best to avoid it , I know I doOk

Here in Leeds vast swathes of road widening have taken place with millions being wasted installing separate cycle lanes. My son is a cyclist. There are a number of roads such as the A659 from Harewood to Pool in Wharfedale which he no longer uses as it is just too dangerous. Cyclist also have a duty of care to themselves let’s not forget. New changes to the Highway Code do nothing but strengthen cyclists belief that they are invincible.
I am also a cyclist but stick to canal towpaths and disused railway lines, quite often doing in excess of 20 miles. If you don’t want to burn your fingers then don’t stick them in the fire.
What with all these more rights than you groups and green lobbyists trying to ‘save’ the planet with fake science this world is becoming a poor place to live. Whatever happened to normal folk.
What type of tires do you run? Maybe try something more knobbly and wider?We cycle for fitness so need to push on to keep the heart rate up before you mention slowing down.
Embarrassing and I'm sorry , my cycling is lesuire cycling and I respect that people who are busy working should not be held upHave a job towing a 3000 gallon tanker, over the summer there were large numbers of cyclists out on the road, due to the weight its very hard to overtake as you need such a long straight and no traffic. So there's no option but to just sit behind them. Only about 20% are willing to pull over, some I've followed for miles. Had a few trying to wave me past when I knew there wasnt a hope only for them to get irate and hurl abuse.
Then you've got Cars overtaking not realising there are cyclists in front, often into on coming traffic having to try and slot in infront. A small number of cyclists are responsible and will pull off the rest seem to be in a world of there own.
No need to apologise for the actions of others. Road here simply isn't fit for the volume of trafficEmbarrassing and I'm sorry , my cycling is lesuire cycling and I respect that people who are busy working should not be held up
The Dutch are well and truly baffled by the term "Dutch Reach". They don't have it in the Netherlands ~ according to acquaintances in the Netherlands, that is.
Totally agree on shared footpaths.Why? I use cycle lanes when painted on the road but not when they are on the footpaths as they are not safe for myself or the pedestrians sharing them.

Cyclists should be the same as tractors, they have to pull in at the earliest available point if they are holding up a long queue.Have a job towing a 3000 gallon tanker, over the summer there were large numbers of cyclists out on the road, due to the weight its very hard to overtake as you need such a long straight and no traffic.
