In Ealing there's an awesome new cycle lane that drops into the normal road at the junction which means you get double bubble go at crossing - either on car green or on the ped/bike green. It's fucking brilliant!
At the other end though near Hyde Park I got beeped because I used the "car" lane because the lights are phased shit for bikes and I'd rather take a green 'car' light than wait for a bike lane green for a lane that I don't even use. Of course I'm beeped from behind even though I'm up the arse of the car in front, fucking moron driver. I slowed right down to let him know this fact. We'd both have got our journeys done quicker if he'd shut the fuck up and/or the bike lane lights were better.
My commute doesn't have cycle lanes and I'm very thankful for that.
