You're making a rather big leap to assume that if something is not

Good point. The Nugents and the Pounders rant about pavement
cyclists until the council workers and their can of Magic White
Paint create a shared use path, then we are told cyclists should not
be on the carriageway.

Not by me, you aren't. Footways are sometimes used - lazily and
cheaply - as cycle routes by local authorities, but no-one sensible
agrees with it. Cyclists belong on the carriageway, taking their
chances with the rest of the traffic and complying with traffic law.

Is it not fun to watch the cyclists squirm?
