The tables on the road were only there for the inauguration day, but bike lane is here to stay.

That's just people not used to dedicated cycle paths.
You would likely have as many issues of a pedestrian trying to cross a road and not seeing a cyclist, as you would travelling on a dedicated cycle path with an ignorant pedestrian.

It just needs everyone calling out people on cycle paths. They likely aren't even aware they are on it.

But that's a lot to read into a single picture. Maybe they have checked both ways, and know nobody is coming (like they would with cars on a road)

Edit:
The 2 people further down don't look like they are crossing!

Before: able to recognize sidewalk and use it After: cheap excuses... not used to bike lanes so from blocking... fully blocking the reduced road... Sidewalk is not used. Sry they are absolutely antisocial in the picture. As a cyclist I would definitely not slow down.

But I understand your hypocritical double standards.... Me me me me me......

Lol But the mods also seem to be anti-bike and anti-everything-but-pedestrians.
