"Perfectly good cycle lane" is something I have heard a lot of times from people who have never tried using the fucking awful cycle lane full of broken glass. Although usually here people cycle in the road instead, rather than the pavement.
You also have shared paths which have a line down the middle so bikes on one side and pedestrians on the other. 99% of the time pedestrians use the whole path and don't care which side they are on so I just swerve around them. Then had someone shout at me for being on the wrong side, I mean yes, but I was compensating for having to have just turned around someone and this space was clear so it made more sense to cycle here. Not sure why, when I cycle over the grass next to the path it seems to upset some people too. My bike is perfectly capable of going over grass, dirt and gravel tracks.
Going home from work the other day 2 pedestrians were taking up both lanes and I just cycled around them on the grass and one of them complained that I didn't ring my bell. Why bother, it's quicker for me to just go around you than wait for you to probably ignore me and maybe eventually move to the side in an unpredictable manner.
