I too commute to/from kings cross, and I don't much recognise your description... Cycling down St Pancras Way can be slow, gotta watch out for taxis yes, but it's one long taxi rank, so what do you expect. it's fine.
RLJ-ing across Euston Rd? rarely seen. Waiting and using that traffic light is usually a most civilised experience, especially as the cars behind you tend to be taxis, already anticipating that first red on Euston Rd (westbound) so in no rush. It's a hell of a lot more sedate than arriving at Kings Cross and heading east...
