As I approached the junction I noticed a man standing at the side of the path, panning a small video camera in my direction as I passed. He didn't appear 'official' (no hi-vis or anything). I wish now I'd asked him why he was filming cyclists, but by the time I'd registered him I was almost past.</p> <p>Did anyone else have that experience this morning, or know anything about this? As I was probably doing about 20mph, I half wondered if he was gathering 'evidence' of 'bloody cyclists' speeding along the path and upsetting pedestrians/children/dogs. </p> <p>In my defence, I was on a straight section of path, I could see well ahead, and it was completely clear. Unlike some NEPN users, I do always slow down for pedestrians and take extra care around children and dogs, so if I appear on some YouTube footage as an example of cycling nutterhood, I'm afraid he's got the wrong target.</p> <p>But hopefully I've jumped to the wrong conclusion... </p>
