Sorry, I can't make it but .... do make sure someone asks the lycra clad, self righteous tarts why a motorcyclists life is less important than a cyclists as all that actual investigations have shown that motorcycles in bus lanes do not increase the danger for cyclists but do increase the safety for motorcyclists.

As a biker as well as a regular cyclist, I can't understand this bks by the cycling lobby, from my experience of cycling in bus lanes, the biggest threat to cyclists isn't motorbikes, it's the bleedin buses......banghead

Its only too true, I cycle and ride to work depending on mood biggrin and from experience its the buses that you gotta be most careful of! Can we lobby to get buses banned from bus lanes? Who cares about car drivers hehe

I thought the pilot commissioned by TfL showed that there was no safety issue with lycras and leathers.
