Given that the met are complaining about it, I suspect their attitude to enforcing it will be complete apathy.

Looks like they would reduce the 5 lanes under the bridge to 4 and widen the northern side 'pavement' into a cycle lane.

One thing to note on that proposal is they'll remove all ASLs from around Vauxhall station. Potentially a big change for cyclists not using the blue routes.

^^ That is a massive flip he took. Must have been horrendous, and I'm surprised he didn't get even more hurt.

Indeed, although the chap with the trumpet cheered it up a bit!

BoJo on CS3 pushing through peds on a zebra crossing and then getting in the way of a van that had already started turning right. Too busy acknowledging non-existent greetings to notice. Model cyclist!

I've noticed recently that I ride with my drive-side foot further from the cranks when I'm using flatties, and (I think) this is what makes my foot sore when I switch to spds. Not sure how I'd really 'fix' that other than wearing spds every day?

I think the implication, given their position on buses, lorries etc is: Cyclists stay back [, instead of overtaking on the inside.]

Bit daft to draft so close that you can't emergency stop in time.

dibs for the lot

Whitechapel yesterday evening. Someone with 'fuck taxis' calf tattos and bmx(?) bars. Didn't get a chance to check.

Maybe it becomes a butterfly after a couple of weeks? Yep, that must be it.

Guy at E&C Roundabout last night trying to track stand. All he did was managed just to track stand on the crossing so peds had to walk around him.
Slowly rolling forwards and ending up track standing sideways in the ped crossing seems to be the norm on my commute. Maybe I should start handing out stabilisers.

If separating buses and bikes onto different roads allows them to add protected bike lanes, then it could be worthwhile. Personally it's the St Giles bit that I find worst, and there are no plans mentioned for there.
