  • The 4mph wobbly Boris Bike riders make me more nervous than the chaingangs, though occasionally people do pass without leaving quite enough space.

  • The 4mph wobbly Boris Bike riders make me much more nervous than the chaingangs

    Why? What could they possibly do to you? Assuming you leave enough space when overtaking?

  • How nervous do you think a chaingang might make someone riding a Boris Bike?

  • The opposite for me, the odd wobbly BB going at walking pace can easily be accommodated for and dealt with fairly safely with a wide berth. Getting boxed in by a chain gang striving to hold the wheel in front while passing within inches was frequently unpleasant.

    Which is not to say we should design roads for one over the other, but wobbly BBs have as much right to the road as anyone else...
