i used to use a contra-flowcycle lane from chiswick to hammersmith roundabout, a kerbed off 1m wide strip of broken glass that would fill up with pedestrians because the pavement was too narrow for a high st. a waste of space.
the one down the middle of the traffic island southside of blackfriars bridge is a bit odd, you ride over peoples toes as they wait to cross. i used to use this lane when i started cycling, but there is a post in the middle which i always went to the right of, one evening i went left of the post but because of the a box for the pelican crossing button the gap is a little bit narrower resulting in clipped bars and me hitting the deck.
i stick to the road (mostly)
