'their kind' ... unfortunate turn of phrase there Less.
Of course, we have all said it is wrong to cycle on the pavement (apart from the dedicated cycle lane of course) in one way or another, by agreeing with you on this !!
Ok ...just for the record:
"I, Katex, genuinely believe that it is wrong for cyclists to ride on pavements causing distress and possible harm to pedestrians"
Happy now ? Hmmmph ... I doubt it.

Katex, you cannot have a thread/discussion etc on here without Less being argumentative & twisting everything poeple say and Jaysay stirring it.
Why do you think one of them has so many posts?

Excellent, are they supplying instructions for using the road responsibly, or do they expect these new users to invade the pedestrians safety zone?

Now look what you have done Spuggie ! Set him off again ..
Does a car salesman give you lessons on the Highway Code or even ask for your licence as you drive it out of the door ?

Does he send you out without checking details?
The car has to be insured, the only way to get insurance is to prove you have a licence, if you don't like what I say don't answer, obviously anything I say you will go into contradictory mode for which is shame on you not me.

Re: Isn't It Time Cyclists re-claimed the road?
Look, we've had 6 pages of this nonsense so far. You got a problem with a cyclist on the pavement? Just do what I do - when he/she comes past, just shoulder the bastard into the road. Easy Peezy.
