Paying fixed penalty notices

Ed's streetview is from a ped Xing, and there's no indication that you can ride a bike on the pavement there.

A little further round there is a dropped kerb (the entrance to Clarence Street) with a pair of full-size no-entry signs on it.

A little further round again there is another dropped kerb (the entrance to Castle Street, where you can ride) with a full-size no-entry sign, with an "Except Cycles" underneath it.

That little sign looks like it's just a reminder. Apart from this, I think it's pretty clear (in this direction at least) that you're not meant to enter Clarence Street from this end on a bike.

At the other end of Clarence Street, I think you have those empty red circular signs that mean (and say) No Vehicles, which includes bikes. (No Motor Vehicles has a car and a motorbike in the circle). So, as long as you know what the signs mean, it's quite clear that you shouldn't be riding there, I think.

I wouldn't challenge your FPN. Sorry.

Thought as much, though it annoys me if the police/council had real issues with that section being ridden on then they would have done something about it before, including improved signage. Now they are fining cyclists on the pretence of 'safety' just to make a quick £50. I will now be cycling around the ring road outside of Kingston with the HGV's which i'm sure will be alot safer for me and a lot more convenient for the car drivers as they are stuck behind me.
