Not counting vans,trucks,service vehicles etc over 90% of cars I pass have a single occupant I am very surprised by the lack of bikes on my daily commute. What keeps people in their cars then?
Hot summer days like today I would expect loads on the roads, leaving the car at home, but nothing, I didn't pass a single biker on the motorway today and the opposite side of the M6 only yielded 4 bikes going the other way (and 3 of those I recognize from my all year riding).
It's not exactly a biking black spot here either, if I leave work late I see stacks of them enjoying the evening sun.
