Re: Drivers on rural roads (4.00 / 2)

I suppose its not all cycleways, and that cyclists when they get onto your actual roads don't ride as safely, and drivers are not expecting them to be there as much.

Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.

Re: Drivers on rural roads (none / 1)

Also, cars are evil and like to hunt in packs for stray cyclists after dark.

I did a run to Milton Keynes a few weeks ago, I can understand how it might not be cycle-helmet paradise. Traffic management is just plain weird compared to most of the UK. It would be useful to get some replication for that research in London and - say - Bristol.
