Don't worry - I don't cycle on pavements. I don't even cycle on cycleways 
parallel to roads because they tend to take me off in the wrong direction. I 
only mark things in this way because the majority of paths I mark are small - 
bollards onto main roads at the end of dead ends and other cut-throughs.

I find it a bit silly to call these cycleways because they're so small.
