There is a rational discussion about cycling, why some cycle on pavements and how this can best be discouraged. Sadly most comments are from those that don't like cyclists, and is rather reactionary. Most cyclists don't regularly ride on the pavement, don't jump lights, and have lights at night. There are many joys in cycling and other good reasons to cycle, health, convenience, cost, the environment. Some competent cyclists have no excuse, some less confident cyclists are worried about road safety, some are sticking up two fingers to society. Particularly frustrating are those parents with children competent enough to cycle on the road. Driver behaviour has much to do with this and there is a need both to accept cyclists as road users and give them space, moderate your speed and share the road.
