Japan Update Wednesday 31st


Check out this piccie. Can you imagine the Health and Safety idiots allowing us to cycle through a shopping arcade in England? This is a good example of why cycling works here. You don't have to keep getting off and on your bike everywhere and you don't get run over by cars. Apparently if a car hits a cyclist, it's automatically the cars fault. You get a green man at all crossroads even if the side roads have a green light because cars turning have to give way to cyclists and pedestrian on the roads they are turning into. It seems to be true at every intersection, another reason why cyclists get places quickly and car driving is probably a bit of a pain.
