"No Cycling" signs on Thames Path between Lambeth Bridge and Westminster Bridge

I'm just trying to ask: aren't there more useful stuff to be writing to MPs about? Enforcing speed limits? Getting rid of one-way systems? Removing roadside barriers? Prosecuting people who claim to have not seen cyclists they kill?

Fuck dawdling about on the footways. If you want a view, climb a sodding hill.

All those things are good too, but hell, I enjoy riding on the roads and through the paths through parks and greenways etc. I don't think one should have to sacrifice the right to ride considerately on shared use paths foe the sake of improved on-road conditions.

We might also write to our MPs about foreign policy etc, things which are arguably more important than cycle paths...

And as tituluvus has said, part of the reason we should object is that the council have put up these stupid signs without following their own legal procedures, which they are now trying to satisfy post-hoc. What they have done is illegal.
