It is unfair of the authorities to ban cyclists from using the Sliema promenade at all times. As a keen cyclist myself, I admit it can be an inconvenience at certain times such as Sunday evenings.
I suggest we at least be allowed to use the promenade in the early mornings as, at that time, only the fitness fanatics are around and are always aware of each other.
I have been cycling on the promenade in the early mornings for the last seven years and I have never been in or seen any incidents involving cyclists.
