yes dan! that's why i hardly ever use that route, fking mental and worse than the highway if you ask me! when i do have to ride it i enjoy cruising along and seeing everyone getting pent up wishing to pull stupid maneuvers to overtake.
the best bit for me is the interaction that takes place at the lights as you cross over butcher row to get onto the 'proper' part of the cycle highway if you are heading east. as soon as the lights for the crossing go green there is an absolute cluster fuk of people coming from all angles to either cross over to head west or head east. i just try and avoid all of it as much as i can.
