    Well my apology is there for you to do with as you please. But to defend myself against your assertion that I have an inferiority complex about being a cyclist. I put it to you your use of the word 'only' is what changes your sentence from a scrutiny of all things arithmetical to a sneering...

    That does rather miss the point that many of us are making on both sides of the debate. The city (and every other one) requires an integrated transport system for all. But thanks for the :bounce: as it allows me to show this rather hypnotic footage of Boston MA:- 1123700809257181196

    Not the video I was looking for, but this one does highlight some of the images I had initially remembered from when cars ruled Amsterdam:- Seemingly it still took 10 years, global economic meltdown mass protests for Amsterdam to think, 'you know what, there must be a better way'. I do...

    & a waterslide. A 1/2 mile(ish) radius from the clock tower should do it. The long term goal 10 years ago should have been car free Brighton from:- Montpelier Road - Buckingham Place - Terminus Road - Trafalgar St & right turn at Old Steine. Obviously there's nothing (other than money...

    Oh come on that wasn't a post turning on poor use of statistics, if it was solely that then I sincerely apologise. Because it doesn't half read as 'what's the point sneering'. Something I do have experience of, as I sneered at the new cycle path between Clymping and Felpham. Unlike my...

    Au contraire my little anger management seminar I'm am completely in agreement with you. Plonking such a scheme into somewhere like Brighton seemingly based on the notion of 'I'm Good You're Bad' is a complete waste of everybody's time, money and is all but guaranteed doom to failure, just by...
