4.0 out of 5 stars Great - for all cyclists, 22 Aug 2008
By 
This review is from: Crap Cycle Lanes (Hardcover)
This book is very enjoyable with a great price tag.

It would make a perfect stocking filler for the cyclists in your family.

Illustrates how our taxes are wasted on moronic designs, but that's a different issue (try the politics section of Amazon)!

The only thing I didn't really like is the attempted "sentencing" for the designers, such as "asbo", "regime change" and "tag and curfew". It just lowers the level of the book, but its only a minor gripe.

4.0 out of 5 stars Highly amusing guide to poor cycling facilities, 1 Jan 2008
By 
lukee (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Crap Cycle Lanes (Hardcover)
Very amusing book showing extreme examples of poor cycle facilities.

Sadly if you cycle in British cities regularly you will have come across cycle paths along similar lines where local authority transport departments have not consulted cyclists, tried to save money or added in cycle facilities as an afterthought. This book could be distributed to local authority officials and councillors as an example of what to avoid as it details all the main problems.

Only slight annoying thing about the book is the American spelling used

5.0 out of 5 stars A humorours look at 50 poor cycling farcilities in the UK., 3 Nov 2007
By 
M. Dann - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Crap Cycle Lanes (Hardcover)
This book evaluates many cycle farcilities in Britain for safety and ease of use. Facilities featured include lanes 6 inches wide, 10 feet long, blocked by a phone box, ending in the middle of a busy junction, or just have a sign designed to decapitate unwary riders.

On a more serious note, it highlights how poor cycle facilities are in general, and supports the Cycling Defense Fund.

This book is a must for all cyclists and road traffic engineers, and anyone who wants a laugh.
