Milton Road Bus & Cycle Lane on a Friday morning 8:30 am. Now wait for the guided bus....
The clever way to travel down Milton Road in rush hour. Some people prefer to queue for road space, others prefer to cycle...
Flakes fall through the flash, here's our tandem for the treacherous mile journey home. Its a covering of snow on a previous snow fall that had not fully melted away. Quite easy to lose control but we stayed on almost all the way home befor ... [more]
View of an advanced stop line from the excllent Thai pub known as the Wrestlers. Light snow is falling.
Taken from the upper deck of a number 26 bus. A rider wisely waits behind the traffic that is occupying the advanced stop area reserved for cycling.
Taken from the upper deck of a number 26 bus. These two riders are using boris bikes.
Taken from the upper deck of a number 26 bus. A rider uses a bus lane, bikes cling to railings.
The streets of central London are delightfully quiet and empty on this Saturday in early February. In the far distance there's a boris bike point.
The bus-only lane that made cyclists go around three sides of Russell Square has gone.
Waiting to turn right into Purbeck Road from Hills Road, to get to the sixth form college. Road markings have disappeared and there's no central lane marking to help the hundreds of cyclists who need to make this maneouvre every day.
Turning right into Purbeck Road to access the cycle parking for Hills Road Vi form college. There's little in the way of road markings here, and those that are supposed to be present, such as the cycle lane in the foreground have all but di ... [more]
See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNxv2hY6it8 The entrance to this cycle path is very limited and requires great care when coming onto and off the road. I need to cycle into the middle of the road to be able to take the corner, ... [more]
Riders emerge from the central cycle lane off Hills Road bridge - away from the dangers of the left turning traffic.
Narrow sidewalk leads to overflow pedestrians endangering cyclists. Previous to fencing in this area was relatively open car parking (Peugeot) which took some pressure from the sidewalk
Toucan crossing of Essex Yeomanry Way, part of a short section of cycle way leading to/from Sainsbury's.
Castle Street Hinckley, one-way and apparently 'NO CYCLING' according to this non-standard and hence probably invalid sign.
Rather unusual one-way system in a residential area - but then again this is a private development.
A bike ride between Cambridge and Babraham. Track was a bit narrow and slippy for the small wheels of a Brompton here.

Steep descent on Stephen's Brae (NCN 1 & 7). Signs says "Cyclists Slow" and "Cyclists Please Dismount" before chicane barrier half way down.
No entry except cycles, except without the "except cycles" plates. Just road markings indicate the cycle contraflow. See also #35219
No entry except cycles, except without the "except cycles" plates. Just road markings indicate the cycle contraflow. Cyclists must turn right at second junction as Ardconnel Terrace on left is proper one-way. See also #35218
Gateway to Richmond Park, there's a water point on the left, but it wasn't operational on this visit.
Bikes parked in Sturton Street, but the drainpipe has a funny sign, detailed in #35149.
New A133 junction with Essex University's Knowledge Gateway, seen here from the accompanying shared use path.
Looks a little like your average Cantabrigian street, but no: it's the capital of Noord-Holland, Haarlem.
This bus-only road in Haarlem has not rising bollards, just prohibitory signs and a few road markings. The with-flow cycle lane (on the right, of course) is segregated from the road by means of a humped reservation.
Cycle and public transport ('openbaar vervoer', usually abbreviated as 'OV') signal heads at a pedestrian crossing just south of Haarlem railway station.
New 'Cyclists proceed with caution' pavement "sign" at the end of the Crouch Street East cycle lane. There is a lot to take in at this junction, and nothing bar this "sign" to aid the cyclist, or prompt them as to where hazards may be: ... [more]
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. A typical Cotswold village, big houses and big cars, and this one has two pubs.
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. Enterring the Cotswolds. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotswolds
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. We met as many bikes as cars along this road - but it was a Sunday.
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. Quite a muddy surface, but a very quiet road.
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. Looks like a dead end but there's a bridge over this Chippenham by-pass.
A rising bollard keeps all but "Bus permit holders only" from using this Industrial Estate access.
"Advisory Crossing point Give way to motor vehicles" - so not expecting any bikes then? :-) A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone.
A bike ride from Chippenham to Biddestone. Parked cars make passing on-coming traffic narrow and uncomfortable here.

It looks like this one-way street has a pavement, but there is no kerb. The surface is just a different colour and there's a white line and double-yellow line.
This day time road closure goes a long way to reducing the car dominance of Chippenham. When there is a busy market on (e.g. #34806) asking cyclists to give way to pedestrians or to dismount is probably OK, but banning them at other time ... [more]
A bike ride from Chippenham to Calne. The spell checker suggested 'Calmer' for Calne. We found it anything but, dominated by this very busy road with heavy goods vehicles.
A bike ride from Chippenham to Calne. After the tranquility of the cycle route suddenly a very busy road in the middle of Calne. This pavement gets narrower and narrower towards the bridge and this part of the town is totally dominate ... [more]
A bike ride from Chippenham to Calne. The railway path breaks for a short on-road section.
There is a huge amount of space on this road for cars, pedestrians, and proper Dutch-style segregated bike lanes.
The markings of this cycle lane, at the very least, suggest some sort of priority for cyclists over cars turning into the side lane.
Rather than protecting cyclists outside this busy garage, Herts Highways decided it would be better to just end the cycle lane at this point. Not that a strip of painted road affords any protection mind
This is the end of a cycle route that supposedly takes you to Watford town centre. However it ends here at the end of Market Street which is a one way road (leading *out* of the town centre).
Quiet cut-through suitable for cyclists and pedestrians. Through-route blocked for cars by a couple of bollards. A good example of permeability.
No entry for cars at this end of the road but there is access for cyclists. A good example of filtered permeability.
