I'd love to have been able to do them as they used to be.
You might just be young enough to see the end of human drivers on public roads. Once we eliminate the drivers, we can eliminate all the fixed infrastructure which attempts to keep them from crashing and the roads will once again be open to cyclists to attempt city to city records without being stopped by traffic lights every 100 yards.
Yeah because pedestrians don't ever need to cross the roads. Also just because theres driverless cars doesn't mean you'll be able to blast across busy junctions at 40mph without being hit by anything
