Is this the future of cycling? Velo city in Toronto The city planners are building a series of cycling tunnels above roads, creating a network of enclosed cycle paths, not unlike the tube network. The advantage of this cycle tunnels are:

  • Protection from the rain and weather
  • No wind so less air resistance. In fact they say the tunnels will generate a dynamic tail wind, which will reduce the effort levels by 40%
  • Easy to navigate
  • Could cause a boom in cycling

Forget miserable cycle paths and free bike hire. Boris and Ken should be told – This is the future of cycling for London
