• @edscoble Interesting to hear about Copenhagen, I've only visited once! I can see how that might happen, but as you say, I think the downside of being honked at still outweights the upside:

    Thousands of people take to the cycle lane, as oppose to the minority in the UK being forced to due to rising cost of driving/public transport.

    As for splintering of campaign groups...

    This echoes what happen with Southwark Cyclists and the founder of Stop Killing Cyclists

    Agreed, and I actually spent some time trying to convince the founder not to run with that campaign.

    I'm not trying to fracture the work of LCC, and if you read my blog you'll see that I've been on a lot of their protest rides, and promoted their work as much as I can.

    But to give them my full support, I want to know what their local branch is campaigning for. (and I wasn't aware of their agenda until recently hence starting this thread). I don't think this equates to bitching/bickering.

    To anyone angered by Copenhagenize's stance (and I agree he can be hard reading) try Chris Boardman's take instead.d.

  • I think the downside of being honked at still outweights the upside.

    I agree, my main point is that Copenhagen isn't the Utopia of cycling as many are led to believe.
