you're talking about Saddler's Farm - 5 roundabouts in 1 - as you can go either way it can save loads of time if you know which way to go - trust me i used that roundabout every day for 4 years in the old form and it was a nightmare. Also they just tarmaced it and its grippy as hell, 5 knee downs for the price of 1, result

Are you talking about the magic roundabout?

As non-conventional as it is, the reason I think it's dangerous isn't the layout itself. Moreso that as soon as they encounter something out of the ordinary, most cagers lose the plot. I've seen cars just stop on it, go the wrong way round it. Straightline 2 roundabout in one go (with other cars going around them at the same time  ) and just head for the exit, etc. it's a nightmare.

I live near Hemel and very often go round the magic roundabout in Hemel. By bike AND car.
It's not fun really!  Stick to your lanes and watch every f**ker! |
