Leicester is a fucking joke with cars. Local council is doing reasonable work (some protected lanes, talk of workplace parking levy) considering what I assume is colossal push back from population but the traffic levels even on quiet roads are insane.
I actually can't believe that people don't mind driving here given that you are constantly negotiating down two way roads with solid lines of cars on both sides narrowing the carriageway to a single. It's extremely stressful but it shows how addicted people are that they don't mind it. There's obviously no where to park when you arrive either.
Sends me into despair thinking too much about it.
At the moment I have 40mm of spacers plus the stem clamp.
With its arrival in Leicester the bike has been ridden in all three major UK cities (Birmingham and Manchester being the other two.)
