I wouldn't ride it at you though. The only reason I ever use the
pavement is to round the bus that has just blocked off my access. This
is most commonly on the A41 Finchley Road heading South.

Give us a proper lane to pass road traffic and we won't use the
pavement. Simple.

And no, I won't use the "recommended" cycle route up and down the hills
in the backstreets of Hampstead.
