Ah - the CEGB. A group of people who think they are *the* experts on cycling and that the answer is to separate cyclists from other traffic...

A Department for Transport (DfT) report has announced plans for an extra 900 lane miles for Britain's roads by 2021. There will be £24 bn investment which is the biggest investment sine the 1970s.Well done ajwr. Now, where are you going to get the billions from to remodel every town in the country to accommodate this?

You may be happy with riding in traffic, but you will never win the argument that it's something the average person will want to do.
It will be interesting to see the effect the two tunnels has on bike use in the next census.
Start putting yourself in the position of a 10 year old kid trying to ride to school. Then ask yourself, is what we have good enough.
Bristol is a rather different beast. They take cycling as a mode of transport seriously. Not just a leisure activity.http://datashine.org.uk/#zoom=12&la...TTT&table=QS701EW&col=QS701EW0010&ramp=YlOrRd
Bristol - North-east Bristol. No nice traffic-free path, up a hill.
(Oh - and the stats are seriously dodgy because they don't capture anyone who does a train-bike combo commute)
