Lawnet - good for you, taking it all so calmly. I'd probably not be so calm. I live in the same part of London as Bringmemyfix and I probably over estimate the risks to my kids here and do the same type of shouting, and un-cool-ness generally when cycling with them (err, or maybe not, given MY joyful ride to work this morning :-) . Looking at the streetview you posted that's exactly the sort of road I'd encourage my kids to cycle on....and then be scared about what might happen. For me its the hard choice of giving them room to grow, even if it feels scary to you...
