Steve, were you hurt or your bike damaged?
If yes, you are FAR more tolerant, patient and forgiving than I would be. I tell you, this thread makes me want to get my Remedies textbook out and if you had suffered any loss, I think I would be strongly…
Congratulations Steve, that's awesome!!!!!
FOI application?
:-(
Feel better soon.
Hope you are seeking legal advice.
Dodgy? Yes.
I ride it in the afternoons when I head home from work. Many times I head up that little unofficial contra lane thinking just that "this is a bit dodgy". But in a perverse way it amuses me. The major route out of the city to the west an…
Can't wait!!
Thanks! Make sure you look for me on the road though - I'm not on the footpath! I'm actually foregoing that "gutter run" in favour of getting in front of the cars on Darling Drive! I did follow the cyclist traffic once and then hopped off my bike an…

They do follow like lambs.
they follow this "Line of desire" at their own peril.
I sometimes follow that line myself,…
I am not sure where you are going SensualCyclist (btw, interesting name) but I find it's quicker to ride along Pyrmont Bridge Road to get to the inner west.
Impromptu contra-flow lane.
And they're supposed to start construction in September / October...
Sorry yes I did use the search function but couldn't come up with an answer - maybe using wrong search terms.
And yes it's better than using the footpath, and a lot quicker than going with the traffic from Darling Drive.
PJ - thanks for the info.…
I do it all the time if I go that route and while it's not the best option there are usually about ten other cyclists doing it at the same time. I have never had a problem with any car drivers there - they seem to be aware of what's going on. Beside…
Yes, it looks dodgy & dangerous.
the Union Street design has a separated cycleway at that dogy section.
