On my walk today, I saw two cyclists using the paths, and it made me wish that Calgary had more bike lanes like this one throughout the city. Literally 30 seconds after I had this pro-cyclist idea, a moron on his bike bombed through the crosswalk by the Co-op (corner of 11th St. and 11th Ave. SW), dangerously slalomed around pedestrians, then hopped the curb and rode on the sidewalk heading east-bound on 11th Ave. Any sympathetic thoughts I had towards cyclists instantly disappeared because of that d-bag.

Quoting myself because I saw yet another ###### cyclist
at the same intersection during my walk home from work today. This moron decided that he'd rather ride on the sidewalk and cycle through crosswalks
even though there is a dedicated bike lane two feet to his right. I watched him do this for two blocks along 11th St. (from 10th Ave to 12th Ave). The stupid camera app on my iPhone didn't load fast enough for me to get a photo of him using the sidewalk instead of the bike lane, but I did get this shot of him cycling through a crosswalk.
[Edit]
Here's a Google Maps street view of the same intersection clearly showing the perfectly good bike path that he wasn't using.
