Rambling on our pathway

Picture taken on the move and as a result not very sharp.

Most frequent cyclists will have come across not just pedestrians on the cycleway, but they are often accompanied by dogs; which are only sometimes on a lead, and more often than not, aren't; AND rather disobedient.

 As we approach three pedestrians, they have two dogs on leads, plus two running free.  Even the ones on leads can get in the way of a cyclist, but those running free 's movements are very unpredictable.

This is an all too common experience for us cyclists.

A bell is essential, most pedestrians seem to appreciate cyclists who use a bell.

By the way, someone said that lamp-posts should be located next to the pedestrian pathway, so that dogs (male ones) don't have to cross the cycleway to be able to cock their legs.   

Also, pedestrians prefer to walk adjacent to the river, and from that point of view the cycleway is on the wrong side.
