Im sure there are Cyclists in here,So il ask the question and hopefully get some comments from other Cyclists. 
I do all the time,I know its illegal but i find it too dangerous around where i live to cycle on the road,Too many idiot drivers who think its funny to go past you at 60mph or not give you enough room...,and allot of the roads i have to go up are one way and i have to go the opposite way which would obviously make it dangerous to be going up a one way street on the road in the wrong direction.
For the first time in probably 2 years today someone on a Motorbike shouted at me saying get off the pavement,of course i did not take any notice of him...he should be watching the road not me!
I've had police pass me lots and lots of time and none have stopped me,I cant see the problem as long as your not going like a mad idiot swerving in between people,and ive never ever had a pedestrian say anything to me.
So whats your thoughts?
- Do you ride on the Pavement?
