In places that chap is cycling like a complete nobber. And as for going on the pavement. *tsk*
(speaking as someone who cycles across Bristol at least twice a day, where the buses & cars are awful & I appear to be the only cyclist who stops at red lights/doesn't go on pavements)

Also; hello fellow Bristolian!
As someone who regularly walks across town rather than using the bus, and who is just getting back in to cycling I wholeheartedly agree.
When did riding on the pavement get to be acceptable, if not 'the norm'?
E: well, the music's good, but it's so distorted!

Agree completely- my cycle is almost 4 miles each way. I can now do this completely on cyclepaths/designated shared paths (apart from the 10m between the Arnolfini & Prince St bridge).
Surely, with all this money being pumped into cycle-routes you'd think it'd encourage better cycling, not worse. And yet Bristol's got the most pious, reactionary, chip-heavy-shouldered cyclists I've come across.
*and breathes out*
