TitleHow do you feel about people cycling on pavements?

Does it bother you? I know it’s technically illegal so that’s not what I’m looking for, I’d just like to know if it really bothers people

I’ve not ridden a bike since someone stole mine the day before my cycling proficiency test 22 years ago, I also can’t drive so I’m limited to busses or Shanks’ pony. I’ve always wanted to get back on a bike but I’m petrified of the idea of cycling in traffic

I’ve recently moved to Glasgow (Knightswood, near the Aldi/ m&s) and I see loads of people cycling on pavements around here. I’ve never wanted to go that route if it pisses people off, I don’t want to be hated but I’m wondering if it maybe doesn’t really bother people since it seems so common?

I’ve got a 2 year old who hates being in a buggy and I don’t like to take her on busses just now so a bike would give us a good bit more range I reckon, it’s nice round here but I’m pretty bored of the same park every day

Anyway, all opinions appreciated, even if you’re telling me it’d make me an inconsiderate twat. Chanks
