On concerns about cycling safety, mainly it's the appalling state of road maintenance.

Although I'm in a London borough, traffic doesn't worry me much since I can assert and dominate the road space I need as easily as a 4 x 4, it's just confidence. The absolute essential to that being effective though is a good rear view mirror so that I have all round vision. Blind people wouldn't be safe cycling, and neither is a person without a mirror so 50% blind.
