On a more positive note, fantastic seeing actual families out riding together.
My only issue with this is how oblivious some parents are about handling their offspring (or themselves). Caught a two-family group yesterday and the parents were all up front chatting leaving the 5 kids at the back swerving all over the place. I think it's great for the kids to be having fun, but at least one parent needs to be at the back and able to tell them to ride along one side for oncoming or passing riders. Likewise, some riders need to accept that you can't go past slower groups without slowing down; super common to see people clipping along sections of the cycle paths frequented by families at full speed.
TLDR; people need to be more considerate
The good weather this weekend meant all the zwifters were out and about, unfortunately they seemed to have forgotten that it's still one other person for exercise.
Either that or there are a disproportionately high number of men in same sex polyamorous relationships in Devon.
On a more positive note, fantastic seeing actual families out riding together.
Given how busy the cyclepaths looked, it felt like if these people started riding on the roads that there might be a cataclysmic change in how the public view bikes.
