Why are cycle signs to Hackney always pointing in the opposite direction to the real route?
Because Hackney is a veritable Shangri-la for cycling and every effort is being made to deter cyclists from other boroughs from discovering this two wheel nirvana and clogging up the streets with yet more bicycles.
