Fuck off … ! I’ve just had a lovely couple of hours riding round the park - beautiful - leaves turning , deer out - well , for a couple of weeks before the Cull - not much traffic … before rush hour when it’s just a rat run full of SUV’s and mopeds blasting it around ….. it was cracking and as a South Londoner I’m chuffed we have somewhere so nice to ride - away from the SUV’s and mopeds. …… oh ..
plus … I wasn’t doing any high speed stuff !

I think Aggie was refering to Regents more than Richmond, but could be wrong.
I do think Regents has a bit of an issue with quite aggressive and intimidating riding. The lack of adherence to the red lights making it a less than pleasant road crossing IME.
Richmond is a fairly different vibe from a pedestrian point of view, though some of the full on chain gang stuff is probably a bit much.
I've got some sympathy here. As a pedestrian, particularly with a toddler, it would be nice not to have to be concerned about bikes flying round the park at high speed.
I don't really know why London still has parks with roads through the middle generally, they should just close them off and turn them into pedestrian priority paths.
