Hi I have cycled for many many years in Bristol. I love it but when I get an angry comment like I just received whilst crossing on a pedestrian crossing on a bike rather than being in the flow of traffic “bloody cyclists you should be on the road” it just gets me down and I take it very personally. You can’t win I feel in the way on the road and unwelcome on a pedestrian crossing. How do people deal with the negativity?

Personally I just ignore them as if I didn't hear the comment. Water off a duck's back. No point doing anything else really.
Just out of curiosity, were you wheeling your bike across the crossing or riding it and was it purely a pedestrian or a Toucan or Parallel crossing?
