Afraid not. Policemen fining cyclists for using the bridge to cross the canal onto the Outer Circle this morning confirms this view. Yet again.
If cyclists were welcome in London then the bridge would be divided into 2 sections one for peds and one for cyclists. There would be a sign saying max speed for cyclists 10 mph. Instead you are expected to dismount and walk across the bridge. It's a joke. This is just one incident of many that I come across on a weekly basis to confirm this view.
Yes we have shitty cycle lanes that invariably lead to disaster or into a parked car at best and we have lip service but when it comes to it London hates cyclists and so do most of the fuckers that drive in London. Because they have been taught, knowingly or otherwise that we are scum
