I think Allister said elsewhere that the traffic on the Story Bridge moves pretty slowly through the week. That isn't so bad.
In peak hour, when that photo was taken, yes. I'm actually passing the traffic in the left lane, and almost matching speed with the traffic in the lane I'm in. Still, most other cyclists seem to use the footpath. The 10' lanes, probably don't help.
One other thing I've noticed. Drivers in normal commuting times seem to be a lot more tolerant and patient of cyclists than at other times. Yesterday I came across the bridge at midday, and got no less than three horm blasts, despite the nearly empty road (there's three lanes F*ckwit. Use one of the other ones) whereas normally I go unmolested.
