The marathons close roads for limited periods, and the route means that the closed off streets can easily be avoided.

But the velothon practically cuts the city in half causing pandemonium for all traffic for an entire day. And that includes transport for workers in the city.
Threads develop; it's the nature of the beast.
An entire day? Goodness me, how utterly unbearable. Motorists:364; Cyclists:1.

So, you wouldn't spend a penny on bike lanes if you were in charge eh?
