...perhaps the tyre tracks were from cyclists pushing their bikes along the pavement like I did??? I was warned by a policeman to be careful as diesel can be really slippery and I have skinny slick tyres. Oddly enough, I also don't want diesel all over my £1500 bike so I pushed it along the pavement! Sorry for the rant but I'm a bit tired of the anti-cyclist views that keep cropping up on the forum. Not all cyclists are considerate, but neither are all pedestrians!
