Blog: Things that Pop into my Head
Posted by: hazel_eyes Thursday 16th August 2007, 2:33pm

Please don't, its bad for my health.

Walking back home from work, a cyclist silently zips past me making me jump out of my skin. There was no bell tinkling to let me know he was approaching and give me chance to move out of the way, just a WHHHHOOOSSSSHHH as he passed about 6 inches from my left elbow.

What if I'd stepped sideways for some reason, or bent to do up a shoelace? SPLAT! Bad news for me and him, especially if he's been thrown into the road in front of rushour traffic.

So, cyclists, if you must use pavements, even though its illegal, please warn pedestrians you are there, don't just shoot past them at 20mph.
