Yeah, definitely. I mean, in town cycling is mostly fine because there are cycle paths all over the place. There are also cycle routes running out of town for a few miles, sometimes further depending on where you are. The problem where I live is that there is no dedicated cycle route so I'm sharing a two lane A-road that's potholed to fsck, with heavy traffic in both directions, plenty of commercial and agricultural traffic, and everybody trying to pass you. Worse, when traffic is lighter it turns into the kind of road where quite a few people want to hoon along it at 80mph. The motorcycle wins here primarily because you can always keep up with the flow of traffic so you're not going to get side-swiped by an articulated lorry or farm tractor towing a trailer of turnips as it tries to pass you. And you're not going to get killed because you hit a pothole at the side of the road, fell off your bike and got run over.
