That's what I mean by 'combative' (see the CyclingCraft thread)

What else can cyclists do, when pedestrians have taken it upon themselves to be so combative? And drivers have always been that way.

Anyway, I think you clearly win the prize for most combative road user on this forum!

Which thread was it where you blocked the path of cyclists instead of moving out of their way? Remember how important you said it was that people know their place and allow faster and bigger objects to overtake?

I would never have cycled on pavements before reading your posts, but you've convinced me that it's the best thing to do. If you can't beat them, join them! After all, you wouldn't want me on the road in the primary position, would you? And you wouldn't want me on the cycle path where pedestrians walks, so...

Cyclists on the pavement deserve all they get. If one ever hits me I'll make damn sure they end up worse off overall.

Clearly, you would commit the greater wrong.

If anger is something you struggle to manage, there are professionals who can help.

Guidelines were released quite some time ago that allow cyclists to cycle on pavements in certain circumstances without risk of being charged.

If the road or traffic is busy where a cyclist could potentially be at risk and they are cycling on the pavement and are showing consideration to the pedestrians (i.e giving them right of way) then this should be fine.
