I think Cycle ways are a waste of money...I reckon that money would be better spent on improving Public Transport.

My issue with cycling is that when you cross the traffic lights some drivers have no patience. On a few occasions I have had cars do a left turn so close to me I had to brake very hard or I would have run into the side of them. I have also had a commercial van pass me, and a few metres on, park and immediately open his driver side door as I got level with him. He had to have seen me when he passed me as he swung out around me even though I was within the bikeway lines. He obviously didn't look in his mirror. I had tobrake hard to miss his door and him. I couldn't move to the right as another car was passing me. What annoyed me most was that the driver yelled at me to watch where I was going.
