Sick of fools yelling "where's your helmet"? Can't understand why a safe mode of transport like cycling has been singled out for mandatory helmet wearing? Want to ride with the breeze in your hair? This is your group.
From the UK, so accustomed to bicycle-friendly roads. Hope to encourage increased bike use in Australia. Anti-helmet law, pro-cycle commuting and local cycle shopping to replace carcentric mall culture.

Hi Sarah,
I must admit, I've been honked and shouted at more here and my behavior (legal!) hasn't changed. I would also say the state of the roads is worse here, I think it has something to do with heat cracking the surface; ice doesn't have the same destructive effect.
I used to live in Glebe, across the Parramatta Road from you, good bike shop half way up Glebe Point Road!!

where do you come from? Orkney?
I wouldn't classify all UK as bike friendly.
