Dunno about that, up here they keep painting cycle lanes everywhere, even up to intersections so god knows who has right of way when turning left. The lycra clad super heros think they own the road once fully adorned for their trip to the nearest coffee shop. Always riding two or more abreast when there is barely room for single file and get the sh!!ts when you drive too close. Another thing that cheeses me off about them is that they don't obey the same road rules as the rest of us. Always running Red Lights or darting across a lane when there is only the slightest gap.

Agree that dedicated bikeways like they have in Canberra is the only way to go but obviously our Governments have squandered most of their money on other useless crap instead.
