Loads of 'em. Just not in this country.

Just wondering, but are the Amsterdam cycle lanes, which are indeed better than here, really a help to cyclists or just a way for Dutch Mr Toad to get those pesky cyclists off the road - especially as there's so many of 'em - and they don't wear helmets, carry passengers and don't pay any effin' canal tax nor nuffink.
. I'd not really considered this before, and just accepted the Dutch model on trust as being better - but there were a lot of bikes squeezed into the bike lanes and mixing it with pedestrians -I saw 2 hit-(uninjured) over 3 days. Maybe a lot easier to have the whole road instead - and cyclists being at Amsterdam numbers - cars would just have to wait.
