• Guy on bike / female pedestrian collision on the shared path running alongside North Carriage Drive, Hyde Park this morning. Looked pretty bad, but the woman got up and dusted herself down and seemed OK, although had a bloodied hand, and after a quick exchange with the guy on the bike, walked off.

    North Carriage Drive is currently closed to traffic to marshal vehicles for the goofy Hyde Park concerts / shows etc. This is currently resulting in epic conflict between people on bikes and walkers, and even between people on bikes, as some of the more goony bikers think it's OK to pelt it down the shared path at a similar velocity as they would the road. Goons.

  • Was wondering why the road is closed to cyclists though? Is it because conflict is worse between the heavy goods vehicles and cyclists on the road than peds and cyclists on the pavement?
