• What's the problem with Kingsland Road? I commuted that way for years on various slow bikes, including a raleigh with rod brakes, and never found it especially intimidating. I'm surprised to see it held up (down?) as the nadir of Hackney roads for cycling.

  • I guess, you don't find it intimidating, but many other people do?

    This is the key issue with cycle campaigning - the people who already cycle are the ones who aren't intimidated - and they're also many of those involved in campaigning. A lot of people tend to think, well, if I can do it, everyone else can - but that's not necessarily true.
