STM - that's a pretty tough break. Were the pedestrians on the
pavement? Were there any near you, or was there enough space? How far
did you go on the pavement?
I do ride on pavements but a) not usually on the 36" b) only when
they're (pretty much) empty. And then I keep a -very- close lookout
for any pedestrians who might emerge unexpectedly.
It seems fairly harsh of the policeman to give you a fine, but I guess
maybe they're having a crackdown on all cyclists in order to punish the
irresponsible ones; you got caught in the crossfire.

Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no
pedals!
Mark: To answer a question with a question: What use is a skateboard?
Dave: Skateboards have wheels.
Mark: My wheel has a wheel!
