A Current Affair recently ran a 2 sided (if you can call it that) debate which they called "bike wars". Seems like bicycles are in the news a lot recently. The Sydney Morning Herald featured an article where one rider from out of town Sydney mentioned how horrible the Sydney "vibe" was towards road cyclists, he also coined cycling the new golf!

Rest assured the weekly MCC weekend bunch rides set the example right by obeying road rules.
