Cycling on the pavement

I cycled onto a deserted pavement in order to let a bus past that was behind
me, carrying lots of people. Does this make me a bad man(tm) ?

I enjoyed my cycle to work today. It's all hills and I'm very unfit, but I
only required one very short rest

Cycling on the pavement AND showing consideration to buses? You're going to
Jeremy Clarkson hell, I'm afraid. Now, if, you'd ploughed into a bus queue
in order to get out of the way of a driver speeding on his 300 yard journey
to pick up his D***y M**l, all would be fine and proper.

*Love* that signature. May I steal it?

Yes. You are a Bad Man and run a bad railway.

Say ten "Hail Clarksons" and we'll let it pass.

THIS time.

Had a bus driver revving his engine and hooting at me this morning on Oxford
Street - despite there being less than 5m between me and the bus in front
that stopped at traffic lights 10 seconds later. I just ignored him.

Also had a driver completely not see me at a mini roundabout this morning
despite me shouting and gesticulating in her direction. She was completely
oblivious. Almost gave chase but couldn't be bothered. Wish I had now.

There are some crazy people about.

You should dismount before using the pavement!

No, you will be recognised as a decent human being and will either secure
your place in heaven or avoid coming back as a frog in the next life
depending on which religion is telling the truth.

Ah a Zen koan. If a man cycles on the pavement and there is no one around to
see is it still illegal?

Dunno but it *sounds* bad.
