Whilst I applaud any effort to get people to cycle as opposed to using cars etc, I'm not sure holding up traffic is the way forward. I know that's not the purpose here (I think) but it serves no purpose. There is no way to make drivers more conscious or respecting of cyclists...ignorant/obnoxious people are ignorant/obnoxious not because they're in a car but because they're that way anyway. You'll never rid society of such people.

It takes a lot to encourage people to take to the streets on bicycles above cars. I cycle to work - a distance of about 7-8 miles - but if there wasn't showers in my office, I wouldn't be cycling in. Cycle lanes help as well and they're becoming more plentiful at least.

Looks like thats it. Depsite all the talk + ideas about last month, the (sparsely populated) ride still just went around the city centre, albeit on a different route that hadnt been done before. Nothing new then = the reason it died in the first place.
