Milton Road ASL and MCL are frequently invaded by cars. ¿Park & Ride? The red box is popular with taxis #9119, vans #16094, cars #17399 and the police #17438.
Close-up of the Musician in the bin. Apparently he eventually had his £600 bin stolen when he hadn't put it away properly one night.
Garbage collection - there's barely enough room to get past this city council refuse vehicle.
Deprived of their own phasing of the lights at these roadworks, cyclists have to compete for space with emerging buses.
Local Authority Parking Enforcement (LAPE) in action. Though it looked as if the driver, who had picted up a coffee from the former bicycle store at the corner of Hills Road got away with it. LAPE acts on double yellow line, it does not mat ... [more]
Most Sunday mornings cars (different ones) park in the MCL. Being pushed from the MCL into the main lane is particularly bad on Sundays, as due to less traffic on Milton Rd cars tend to exceed the 30 m/h speed limit on the road.
¿ What is it with cycle ways in Cambridge that motorists confuse them with car parks ?
This vehicle was parked outside the Rat and Parrot for over 2 hours between 8:30 and 10:30, and despite requests no police action was taken. Stopping in this section of Downing Street is very dangerous, and here even pedestrians were force ... [more]

See clip at http://youtu.be/cvxTZD5GiSc "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 This is even more important when travelling at high speed on a road that is narrow for 2 lanes.
See clip at http://youtu.be/VkAKaQXMTUU "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 This was pretty scary as had no idea what was on-coming and had the bike right behind me.
See clip at http://youtu.be/Jn7InpvpEdI I heard the first car, which was very loud, but then was pretty shocked by the speed of the second in a narrow road with limited visibility. At the end of this short straight, it's a village centre ... [more]

See clip at http://youtu.be/gK4XdARjMp0 Breaking Highway Code Rule 178 http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070332 I passed this junction twice today. Both times there were cars in the ASL.
See clip at http://youtu.be/m_roV-KOalU Not a lot to say, really. Not very impressed by driver skills. And we wonder why people get killed on Britain's roads.
See clip at http://youtu.be/xo962QVJVpU Just after a narrow section where vunerable road users are in with the traffic, and there are lots of pedestrians.
See clip at http://youtu.be/ei81oJqAAwc First and third car were fine. Middle car was much closer. Breaking "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314

See clip at http://youtu.be/p-7ehw6IQVU First car was a bit close, second was far too close and faster. So fast as to be speeding at a prosecutable level (limit+10%+2mph). Right outside a Primary School. At lunchtime. A very considerate ... [more]

See clip at http://youtu.be/TbLevi6laxQ This may seem a bit less of a problem, and yes I had an escape route. But it was the blind assumption that I'd move over on my side of the road if they just kept driving at me. I was on the rig ... [more]

Bikes overflowing across the road from the girls' school - because virtually every bike now has a basket, only half the otherwise adequate provision of cycle stands can be used....
Because of roadworks, car parking has been removed from the other side of the road - but because of the way the cones are placed it gains about 1 measly foot of extra space! But it makes a decent cycle lane (apart from the fallen cone) !
Opening in July 2012, New York's equivalent of the Boris Bike - not the Bloomberg Bike but the Citibike (yes, more bank sponsorship) [courtesy of NYC mayor's office www.nyc.gov]

The Mayor of Cambridge, Ian Nimmo-Smith holding the opening speech for the Reach Fair Ride, which he joined (wearing "the other" mayoral chain).
Access to the cycle parking at Reach Fair was through this dismounted gate into a trampled-down meadow. The gate got very muddy and slippy.
