I had a similar experience with biycyles on the coast path between Whitstable and Herne Bay recently. The worst culprits seemed to be parents with young children, as yet unable to steer properly. The parents' concern is always 100% for the child, not the ankles and shins they are assaulting.

Did I mention that we're going to try the Northumberland coast in October? Just for a change. And some seafood. That's what Cumbria lacks, you know. Decent seafood restaurants.
South of Eynsford in the Darent Valley? Wooded hills up the the West? Beautiful spot. I used to drive around there when I was a yoot when I was supposed to be revising for A-Levels. Haven't been back since, though, except for a walk in the valley last year, I think.
Scenes from the What Wants The World? video by The Stranglers were shot around there.

I'd like to try Northumberland one day too. Though not for the sea food. :wheeze:
