Riding a bike in London is certainly different from anywhere
else. The first thing you notice is the incredible number of
junctions. Navigation is a nightmare! The second thing you
notice is that discipline is almost entirely absent.
Courtesy is common, but so is ignorance. Red lights are
treated as Give Way signs by just about everybody,
pedestrians amble into the road looking the other way, buses
drive completely at random and taxis do U-turns in the road
- but none of this seems to cause a problem because
everybody is expecting it!
My monthly trip to the Smoke is looking like being a big
learning experience...
