I’ve lived a couple of years in Europe and spent time in the UK. I know what your reality is, you have probably never experienced mine. Visibility doesn’t help when a large dump truck carrying 25 tons of gravel comes around the bend and physically can’t stop in time, and there’s incoming traffic in the other lane. I’m on the outskirts of a good size city. There are zero bike lanes outside the urban inner city. Absolutely no one walks or bikes these roads out where I am.
