basically Bristol was the UK's first cycling city and the roads are very poor, badly marked lanes, dangerous cycle paths and all, much like most other citys but i think that this quote seems to go off on a complete tangent at the end of a half decent report.
i normally use the bristol-bath cycle track just because its got less pot holes than my alternatives (church road or bath road) but still has 2 sections where the roots of trees have broken up the tarmac and despite reporting it to the council twice nothing has been done about it! i seriously think the local council have a lot to answer for really (including the "showcase" bus routes that are also shyte and over spent!)

"There are some cyclists around that think they own the road and they don't, but then there are some car drivers and bus drivers that think they own the road and they don't.
"We have to share and respect one another."
