Someone posted this in the MTB section.

A guy argues against a ticket for NOT cycling in the cycle lane....and then does as the law suggests...

The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    so is it legal or not over there? Thankfully it's not against the law to not ride in them over here - dispite what a "friendly" policeman tried to tell me the other day on my way into oxford.

    In all fairness the ones around oxford are quite good quality, they are just full of numpties riding erratically and slowly!

    Cycle lanes, don't get me started. For a start, 100%* of the times I've been knocked off my bike have been in cycle lanes. Much safer outside them.

    Haha - very good - for anyone having a look you have to watch it right to the end - the funny bits are all after half way.

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

    Saw Dr Hutch tweet this earlier, I thought it was quality, especially actually hitting the cop car.

    Excellent - it sums up just how useless bike lanes usually are.
