AS A St Helens cyclist, I can see the point of people who criticise bikes being used on pavements.
But take it from me, the cycling infrastructure is really lacking at the minute.
There is some good stuff in the offing in the south of the town (linking up the Dream with other areas, etc), but more needs doing if we are to encourage cyclists on to the road.
I've been clipped, run off the road, and had to take evasive action so many times over the years.
You can't blame the less experienced cyclists for riding on the pavement under the circumstances.
