    They're too long (except the first couple). Stickers have to be short to
    work:

    "Suck someone else's wheel!"

    Their token gesture is just that.

  16. Excuse my top posting but .....

    I think anything the RTA do for cycling is political propaganda. The
    biggest one is sponsoring the Bike NSW bike ride. In itself the event is
    a wonderful thing and has got a lot of people onto bikes. At the same
    time by sponsoring it it lets the RTA off the hook for doing any thing
    productive for cyclists.

    Sorry I will go back into my shell

    My understanding is that they put money towards Bike NSW, they match
    councles funds for the building of cyclepaths and the
    cyclepath/brakedown line along the M* roads is very usefull as well.

    Not that I am aware of. That would raise strong ethical questions if
    they did.

    Quoted message said:

    Yes,but unfortunately, they are not very discriminating on what they
    fund,
    e.g. from my LGA
    ; basic line marking subsidised as bike lane marking
    ; bicycle lane on downhill side of bridge is really a pedestrian
    bridge to car parking from major sports ground (there is no uphill
    bicycle lane on other side)

    Quoted message said:

    and the
    cyclepath/brakedown line along the M* roads is very usefull as well.

    This is co-incidental as the major benefit of that "breakdown lane" is
    to help preserve the road surface when cars wobble out of the lane. If
    it wasn't there, then major pot holes would be along the edge.
