Our local dual carriageway (Burdock Way) is quite short but during rush it can be quite manic and the roundabout at the end of it is a cyclists nightmare.
Is that on the two, three, four or five lane section?Our local dual carriageway (Burdock Way) is quite short but during rush it can be quite manic and the roundabout at the end of it is a cyclists nightmare.
If memory serves, @dellzeqq claims to have ridden the A41(M). Since the alternative is direct and convenient that's a pointless ride on a pointless motorway
i drove down part of the A1 while some were having a time trial on it
Yep, I reckon you're right there on all counts.I do a couple of miles on a dual carriageway as part of my commute and have ridden on a lot of them over the years. I personally would say they're safer than cycling on most country B roads - in both cases cars are traveling at 60mph+ but DCs have wider lanes, better visibility, few blind corners, easier overtaking for motorists, and no random driveways/minor roads with blind entrances for people to come out of suddenly.
