Hmmm, how annoying. Last year they were making cyclists dismount in some sections during the week. Though I didn't ride through there at the weekend when the show was on. I find it too annoying trying to dodge pedestrians and little tykes on trikes.

Worried about all those naughty bikers with their frame mounted Stinger missiles.

...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.

It pays to ring your bell frequently on that northern bank's bike path. I can't believe how many pedestrians use it! We should start up a campaign to get a separate bike path installed - a straight one without those arbitrary bends. (Who the hell designs these paths, anyway? A drunkard?)

don't see what the problem is. The detours add about 400m to the Causeway/Narrows trip and apart from rubber matting (which gives the legs a workout on a fixed gear) the detour path is no different to the normal path.

Was about to make the same comment. No different to what they did last year.
