Lol, I thought that was happening with rogan's comment, but didn't want to presume...
Oxford road (mcr) is one and two lane traffic with more busses than go down Oxford street (ldn)... Both would make good direct routes between points if it wasn't for all the traffic and lights.
Brook street (only one block of it is called upper brook street) in London is a bit of a rat run, but I ride in the middle of the lane so people don't overtake me at all on that road. Upper brook street in Manchester is a dual and triple carriageway with massive lanes (if it's still the same as last time I visited) you can't take the whole lane because it's so wide it's still possible to be overtaken when in the middle of the lane (slight exaggeration)... Do other towns have an Oxford st/road parallel to Brook st?
