Do you ever encounter roundabouts in your area?

We have a few of the English-style roundabouts out here on the upscale west side of Vegas known as Summerlin (Howard Hughes' mother's maiden name) and they can be kind of harrowing if you go through one on a bike because it's an exercise in merging with cagers from different entry points.

While viewing the TDF telecasts, I think the coolest visual is when the peleton splits into two groups on these Limey contraptions...

I always get flashbacks from "National Lampoon's European Vacation" where the Griswalds are trapped on a roundabout and can't get off!
