It sounds like you are not happy with living in england......go and live in india or china.......1 of them countries all the imagrants come from....makes me think who inspires you to complain about minor issues in such a wet,defenceless ,lame excuse
Not good for pedestrians either! The final stretch looks better so why leave that first bit? All part of the failings by local authorities to maintain anything. For a decade, Leicestershire claimed that they were clearing roadside gullies every year. Confronted with the evidence that they were clearly not doing so, their response that: “We’re no worse than other councils.” Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your reply. Interesting to note that when the Active Travel England ratings were released last year, Lincolnshire County Council defended their poor rating by saying another council was worse. In relation to the difference in surfaces, it's something to do with conflicting council boundaries. One council looks after the rough section and another the gravel section. Crazy really, but that's how it is.
AS IT SHOULD BE BROTHER IT LITERALLY TAKES A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I GOT BEEPED FROM BEHIND THE OTHER DAY FOR DOING IT IN MY CAR. THERE REALLY ARE SOME ENTITLED IGNORANT PEOPLE OUT THERE MATE ALL IN A RUSH TO SIT AT THE NEXT JUNCTION OR LIGHTS. 👍🫡
@@CyclingSouthLincolnshire AS CYCLISTS WE ARE THE ONES WHO ARE IN DANGER OF GETTING REAR ENDED WE DON’T HAVE BREAK LIGHTS TO WARN THE DRIVER BEHIND US. AND IF SOMEONE REAR ENDS YOU THEN THEY ARE CLEARLY TO CLOSE AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION. BUT AS ALWAYS THEY ARE JUST MAKING EXCUSES FOR BEING A BAD OR IGNORANT DRIVER.
SAME AROUND HERE BROTHER. THEY REALLY COULD NOT GIVE A 💩. JUST TAKE YOUR MONEY. MY COUNCIL SPEND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF POUNDS ON FLOWERS BUT CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THE LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE. 👍🫡
@@philipparris4287 Neil likes to comment on my videos. Trouble is, he is quite anti cyclist and all of his comments seem rather angry in tone. They are also spectacularly stupid.
@@markgt3492Unfortunately I do not have time to cycle round supermarket car parks trying to create content by f****g and blinding at people shopping .But keep up with your content because one day you get more than 3 likes BROTHER...😂😢
So you expect the local council to tarmac this path for you and your invisible cycling fraternity. Your making it worse and turning the dirt track into a mud bath and unfit for walking on .Well done you..
@@markgt3492 The funny thing is Neil doesn't understand that it's a dedicated cycle and pedestrian route. So they should sort it. They are just not interested in making things good for cyclists.
@@CyclingSouthLincolnshireAND THEY WASTE MONEY PAINTING POINTLESS LINES ON THE ROAD WHICH ZERO PERCENT OF VEHICLES TAKE ANY NOTICE F AND CALL IT A CYCLE LANE 👍🫡.
WELL DONE THAT PEDESTRIAN. FIGHTING FOR YOUR RIGHT TO WALK ON A PAVEMENT. THESE CYCLING CLOWNS NEED TO BE GIVEN A LESSON IN RESPECT. CYCLISTS NEED TO PAY ROAD TAX AND INSURANCE AND HAVE A LICENCE AND REGISTRATION PLATE. PAY YOUR WAY IF NOT PISS OFF FROM BRITISH ROADS . MOTORISTS AND PEDESTRIANS FIGHTING BACK TAKING BACK ARE ROAD SPACE FROM THE LYCRA LOUT COMMUNITY
Cyclist seem to really enjoy testing the FAFO game. And in this day and age? With all the mentally ill out and about? Bold my guy. Hell, even this video; If that guy was a psycho, he could have just gave you a tap at the 1:40 mark of the video and it would be lights out. You may have had the right to the road, but you'd be right and six feet under. Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. Don't learn this the hard way.
I am completely with you that guy walking has attitude problems. No respect or patience is disgraceful really. I hope your doing alright my friend. Stay safe too.
I hate shared use paths. Cycle on the road next to one you get abuuse or horn use by drivers or pointing. Use it on a bike you get conflict with pedrstrians like this. The speeds just do not match. If youre walking at 3mph and a road bike holds 20 mph thats too much difference. Some road bikes can hold 30 if not 40 mph. You cant do that on a shared path and its stupid to try. But you cant get tgat through a drivers head who thibks you hsve to use it. I dont want to keep slowing down on my bike to ask to pass pedestrians or ride up kerbs and neither do i want to share the road with drivers who feel it belongs to them. This os exactky why i quit riding bicycles altogether and use a turbo trainer.
leave it to govenernment / council to piss money up the wall. In my local area they made a motorbike parking area but its up a kerb and if you ride it up the kerb you get a fine
There should be no such thing as a shared pathway, especially one that is that narrow where they cannot mark the side for pedestrians and the cyclists. On the road, car drivers have to give the cyclists six feet of space, why is it that cyclists don`t have to give the pedestrians any space at all?. It seems to me that the government and councils are far too much in favour of cyclists, they have spent many millions taking half of the roads to make cycle lanes and made all of the cars go to the one lane that is left, thereby causing long hold up for the motorised vehicles, meanwhile the cycle lanes are mostly used by just a few cyclists, the police ignore cyclists riding through red traffic lights, riding the wrong way on roads and cycling on pavement that are just for pedestrians. The whole idea was to protect the most vulnerable by making the ones with the threat to give them space but in this case, they have totally ignored the pedestrians that use this path and this is just one of them.
I think you'll find that in the hierarchy of road users cyclists MUST protect pedestrians, meaning the cyclist MUST have gone around the pedestrian rather than the other way around. Had the roles have been reversed and a car used a horn to push a cyclist off the road so they can get past, you'd agree
@@TheDiggidee I didn't use my bell to push them out of the way. I rode steady and used my bell to do just that, protect the pedestrian, instead of just riding at them from behind. Why is it that people like you think that a cyclist using a bell is comparable to an idiot using their horn aggressively in a car? Is it becsuse of the carbrain and you think cyclists can do no right? Before you spout nonsense about the highway code, I think you should read it.
@@CyclingSouthLincolnshire No, you rang the bell to tell them that you were behind them, now get out of the way, if you were cycling on a road, you probably would cycle in the middle because you can legally even though you have a convoy of cars behind you doing 15 miles per hour, so, what is wrong with that pedestrian walking in the middle of the path stopping you from getting past? if you were on a road and a car sounded his horn at you, you would probably be annoyed, the difference here is that a car sounding the horn is actually a motoring offence linked to road rage but not for cyclists, that seems to be considered to be OK.
@@honestchris7472 Ha. Your cycle in the middle comment proves your bias and the fact you haven't a clue what you are whining about. There is nothing wrong with ringing my bell at pedestrians. I didn't even want him to move out of the way. Just know that I was there and would be passing. But don't let the truth get in the way of your stupid little carbrain rant. I bet you hate the fact that cyclists can't be prosecuted for speeding too. 😅 Pillock.
Common sense should tell the cyclist that this pathway is not suitable for both pedestrians and cyclists. Why should the pedestrian have had to move out of the way when the cyclist could have used the grass? Can't you cycle on grass?
Agreed, you could always have used the road, the pedestrian can't. Sounding your bell to move them is like a car driver tooting a car horn for a cyclist to move over.
@@johngreen8693 Really? There is a shared use pathway to use and you want cyclists on the road? As I stated in the video comments, you can't win as a cyclist. Also, the bell was to let them know I was there so I could move past them safely. It isn't to make them jump out of the way you clown.
There's a shared use path near me, but it's more than twice the width of yours and is clearly marked. The path you're on just isn't suitable for shared use.
@@phillwainewright4221 I've been using it for years without any issue other than vehicles parked across it. This was the first time I've had an issue with a pedestrian.
A long time ago you were obliged to ring your bell constantly, people would be used to the sound. Now many people ride without a bell, its rare to hear them, and I think some people ignorantly think you are being agressive when ringing it, when it's really just a polite warning.
Just shows the absurdity of taking a normal width pavement and arbitrarily declaring it ’shared use’. Cycling facilities on the cheap. I think if I was a cyclist I’d sooner use the road!
@@neiltonks4627 If you use the road around here you get abuse from the drivers. You simply cannot win on a bicycle. I use this pathway because its one of the few we have around here.
Good point. There's a shared pathway alongside the A51 near Tarvin in Cheshire. There's barely enough space for a pedestrian to walk without hindrance from overgrown hedges and verges never mind having both a cyclist and a pedestrian passing each other. Cycling facilities on the cheap - indeed.
Another idiot on a cycle clearly creating a scene to post on you tube. The next time the pedestrian may have partially deaf so your little attention seeking bell is useless.
