Looking on google earth the pavements are awash with cyclists, it
must be awful for pedestrians.

Really!?

I can see a few bicycles on the footway, and some of those
pedestrians might also be cyclists. But I can't spot anyone riding
a bike on the footway.

I was looking on Google earth (rather than google maps) and the
whole area around the junction was covered in bicycles, probably
around twenty or more, and only one was riding in the road.


They must be big bicycles if 20 were sufficient to cover a whole area.
Idiot.


Is idiot your sig.? You might want to change that.

Anyway, since you don't know how big the area I am describing is, you are
not qualified to comment, but I do realise that perhaps you are mentally
challenged and foreign to boot ('to boot' is an English idiom, meaning
'also').


It is not unreasonable to believe that you are describing the area
around Cambridge Railway Station.

Looking at Google Earth I can see several pedestrians with long
shadows, but no cyclists on the footway (although I do not rule out
that possibility).

Google Earth has an excellent way of pinpointing lawbreakers with
co-ordinates. If you zoom in on one or two of these footway cyclists,
hover your mouse of the rider, then post the co-ordinates of the
errant cyclist, we will be able to better understand the nature of the
problem to which you are referring.

There's a cyclist riding through Cambridge Station Car Park he
52-11'42.31"N 0-08'15.27"E.
For example.
