I wonder if Barnet Council might get embarased into answering the
aggrieved cyclist's complaint soon. The matter was reported in last
week's Edgware & Mill Hill Times (unsure if report available

online)...

It was on line, on 8th July at www.edgewaretimes.co.uk under local
news. I don't know whether they stay, though.

I know there are some colonials on this list and, in any case, most of
the wrongheadedness posted here isn't specifically Antipodean.

http://www.abc.dotars.gov.au/green_bicycle_lanes.htm

The link explains why coloured cycle lanes are A Very Good Thing (The
authors seem to really believe this in good faith) and solicits
feedback on the use of coloured lanes.

How do they help thse of us who are colourblind?

By helping non-colourblind drivers avoid driving over the cyclelanes.

But that is a ***bad thing***. If cars avoid driving over the cycle
lanes their tyres will never sweep away the debris, while the cars in
the adjacent lane will continue to sweep the debris in. We want cars
to drive over the same are that cyclists use. Cars drivng over that
area are a good thing.

This is true, but has little relevance to most cycle lanes I see.
