Cyclists: ‘catch up with the traffic jam’

Spot the difference...




























Here on the A113 in Chingford motorists are permitted to park in the cycling-friendly one-metre wide cycle lane between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm on weekdays, because everybody knows that no one in London cycles during this time.
