separate, they create junctions, and consequently danger points. One of
the nice things about NL for cycling is drivers are used to bikes, are
used to looking for them, and give way to them. That's a lot better
than the bike paths IME.

Pete, you are a confounded idiot and you always have been on this newsgroup.
All you know how to do is to advise other cyclists how to get themselves
killed.

How could a confounded idiot become a Medical Physics IT Officer?

A cyclist has to stop, look and listen at almost every junction if there is
the possibility that motor vehicles are present. Most bike paths will have
stop signs posted along the way at danger points. Unlike you, I do not
depend on motorists to ever do the right thing where bicycles are involved.
Only idiots do that!

Seems Ed does not want to get anywhere in a reasonable amount of time.

Is that a tree house?

I see google.com (as opposed to google.co.uk) recognises UK Post
Codes. SP8 4XQ is mine, but it does point to the house over the other
side of the road.

Look a couple of centimeters [1] below the marker.

[1] Will vary with monitor size and display settings.

They are one and the same thing. Just because you know your way around a
computer does not mean you know your way around the block.

A cyclist has to stop, look and listen at almost every junction if there
is the possibility that motor vehicles are present. Most bike paths will
have stop signs posted along the way at danger points. Unlike you, I do
not depend on motorists to ever do the right thing where bicycles are
involved. Only idiots do that!

If I want to get somewhere fast, I go the airport and purchase a ticket for
a jet airplane ride. Cycling is for leisurely recreation - period.

The Dutch have always been ****ed up all down through their entire history.
These people even have their own variation of the German language. I mean,
just how stupid can you get?

Work is for workers like servile liberal proletariat scum bags like Tom
Sherman. We plutocrats would not be caught dead actually doing any work.
Even to mention that subject in my presence is an insult!
