That side, the other cyclist was a total ass. Cyclazi indeed.

I wasn't legal, that is correct. The line up of ~30 cars waiting to go over the bridge didn't mind me breaking the law, and in fact probably appreciated it. The nice lady I was waiting on the pedestrian island with didn't seem to mind either especially when I waited for her to begin crossing before getting back On my seat. There are always cops at this intersection and none of them have ever had a problem either, even when on foot at the crosswalk. If they ever warn me I'll stop doing it.
