I find it very hard to see genuine mass cycling in this country with safety in numbers and some training, useful though that is.
But I agree, people like the LCC need to promote cycling for all the benefits that it brings whilst not losing sight of the fact that politicians are making decisions on cycling provision that are killing people needlessly. It's a very difficult balance to strike and maybe there is an argument that it has gone a bit too far towards the dangerisation angle.
