So you're happy to sit back and watch some NIMBYs with no actual interest in your safety ban a bunch of roads? The you're limited to racing on SC roads, some of which you say aren't as safe as the DC? Tell me again why it's not worth kicking a fuss about bicycle road bans?

It's worth objecting, on the grounds of reducing precedence, and that their reasoning is poor. All I said, was that I can understand why people would want to ban bicycles, and that if it were not a time trial course, and a very fast one, no one would care.
I said duel carriageways can be safer to make the point, that they're not necessarily unsafe, simply because traffic is fast flowing.

Fair point. And if it were banned, then so be it.
As I said before, some single carridgeways are more dangerous than double. Theres a 25mile TT around here on a single road that I won't use training. It's fast and flowing and not many people do less than 60. With a quite a few blind but fast flowing corners too. I'd rather ride the E2.
