Smithfields market: Police

It's the cycle "path" through from Little Britain that i have many issues with...first no one realises it is a cycle route and give you the evils for riding through there...second i have to agree that going through there at speed with the new hospital entrance that offers no view of oncoming cycles makes it dangerous....third is the little newsagents at the West Smithfield end...fourth is the exit across the path into that weird little roundabout where taxis park all around to get there snacks and daily mails from the newsagents....fifth and most important of my gripes is the disappearing sign at the Little Britain end that told cyclists to dismount....it's a crazy set of mixed messages and potential hazards that make this cycle route a real bad scene.....it's a doozer of a short cut though heading north from st pauls to clerkenwell....my point is lost to me but my message to whoever decides upon and maintain these cycle routes is sort it out!!! Avoid confusion and don't have a cycle route right next to a hospital door or don't have a hospital door right next to a cycle route....oh yeah and it saves no time going through Smithfields anyway...look out for raw meat and a lardy surface....go vegetarian and avoid the area.
