Can Pounder or one of the other irrational bigots explain just
what the cyclist was supposed to do?
Dismount, sprint past the pedestrians and remount?
And why does there always have to be threats of violence?

Threat of violence is against the rules.

Yes, but, toy boat owners pay Canal Tax so rules don't apply to them.

Oh I see ...

I am sure Mr Angry will tell you he pays fuel duty and why not, those
toy boats get about 5MPG, Concorde got 17, making toy boats the worst
polluters on the planet.

Wow!
A Boeing 787 gets about 124.

miles per gallon?

per passenger

124 miles per gallon per passenger?

That's more like it, I suppose. You wouldn't get that per passenger on a
moped if there were a land route.

canal boat red diesel is far cheaper than road fuel and also supplies
heating and lighting, plus a canal boat can carry loads of passengers
without breaking a sweat.

So you agree toy boat owners are sponging freeloaders, unlike cyclists.

On the plus side at least motorists can't drive into the canal like they do here in the valley.

Do what drivers always do near pedestrians. Get out and push.

What? They don't...

Do many drivers speed past pedestrians on that narrow tow-path?

I don't know. Why do you ask?

In order to try to make sense of what you posted.

If it can't be done, fair enough.

There's nothing to stop you reading what I posted. Here are a couple
of clues that might help - I inserted the word "always" and I didn't
use the word "speeding".

You seem to have forgotten the accusations made by the pedestrian
against cyclists.
He is there on the spot.

I am not.

I assume that you are not on the spot either.

Of the three of us, which is the most likely to have an accurate picture
of the behaviour of cyclists there?

Your responses to me have nothing to do with the reply I sent to SJ.

I have nothing against canal boats. Long may their users live and prosper.

excuse). My reply was to you, replying to me.

Now... back to the canal boat man...

I haven't forgotten that some people have a large imaginary bee in their

The man in the video was on the spot. He is in a better position to
judge what is happening than you are.

Well, unless you were the man on th bike, that is.
