Family cycling. No-one wears a helmet, the straps on the child seat of the child on the front adult bike aren't even done up. This is what happens when conditions for cycling feel, and actually are, safe.
Lots of room for riding side by side on this wide properly segregated cycle path, and we're well clear of the ring road on the left.
This family is about to make a left turn and will cross the road with four lanes in one direction and one in the other in one stage, with a generous green time, without stopping in the middle or negotiating any barriers. They will continue on a similar standard of path to their destination. We go straight on at the lights and also continue on a similar standard of path to our destination.
