With test events all over the place, it seems that the Olympics are really coming. This means plenty to look forward to for cyclists, but also it seems that more and more people will be encouraged to ride. You could see this as an admission that the transport infrastructure of London won’t be able to cope, or a chance to be joined by thousands of other cyclists as busses and trains grind to a tourist-filled halt.
Perhaps the real answer is the one being tried out in Lithuania where cars parked in bike lanes are being threatened with being crushed by an armoured personnel carrier.
To finish I bring you a warning for London based cyclists. If I were you I would avoid parking my bike in this lane in Islington.
