See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi1foaNB_Ik You can't see very much here. A car coming towards me, then at about 10 seconds a sudden wiggle back and forth. This is me suddenly hearing brakes engage hard of a bus right behind ... [more]

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0gjcSANqr0 Yep, not only do cars pass too close at times, so do cyclists. Of course if a car had been this close it'd have been really dangerous, a cyclist is not as bad. However, you do see m ... [more]
Resurfacing of a cycle path. This path is 4 m wide and four kilometres long without interruption, providing part of a fast cycle route around Assen. The new surface is several inches of asphalt laid on top of proper foundations. The same ma ... [more]
Contraflow cycle lane on Church Road, Linslade. Forms part of the route connecting the town centre in Leighton Buzzard to the railway station. The rest of the contraflow is unmarked on the road but is indicated by a traffic sign.
Contrasting with #32641, the view in the other direction. Traffic calming is planned here.
Looking northwards from the turning into the Rugby Club where traffic calming measures are proposed.

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4Q0Yb0MToA This road is rapidly becoming a hot spot for me. It's a narrow, dead straight, two-lane, unclassified road. Because it is so straight, cars will approach 60mph despite the brow and ... [more]

Cars (wanting to turn left into Union Lane) frequently block the bus & cycle lane on Milton Road. One of many reasons why Union Lane should be turned into a cul-de-sac (like Chesterton Hall Crescent).

The gate is open and people walk to the roundabout, reducing the distance by 75%. With a 1/20 gradient achievable, it would be good great if those using push chairs, wheelchairs or bicycles could benefit from it, too.

Why go the long way (770 m) if it could be 200 m (less then 5% gradient). See area #31012 and map #10348. Ring Fort Road will be Orchard Park's commercial area with shops and a second hotel.
