MILITARY ROAD NIGHTMARE
* Its official ... its a mess. A peak hour that now never stops and who in their right mind would attempt to pedal along this stretch of bitumen misery. Thankfully there are some reasonable alternatives (on the eastern side) that makes a journey to from the City somewhat safer.
The Berlin Wall may have gone down but cyclists now have their own version from the Northern Beaches into the City.
