Out cycling, I see many other (so called) cyclists who: -
Ride through red lights 
Ride on the pavement
Ride against the traffic flow
Ride without lights at night
Ride two or three abreast and don't go single file to allow cars to pass
Ride mountain bikes on footpaths
Disobey "no cycling" signage
All of which gets proper cyclists tarred with the same brush as "lycra louts" 
Cycling is great exercise and good fun, but it will never gain the respect of the general non-cycling public, particularly a great many car drivers (and yes I am a car driver myself), when there are so many bike riding idiots around.
Rant over  - back to the theme of plant locations

I can't drive yet and my bike is my mode of transport. After taking up geocaching, I have been getting out and about a lot these past few months.
This post just got me thinking. I don't think theres anything wrong with riding on the pavement. Sometimes the roads are too dangerous for cyclists especially at rush hour.
I don't really see what harm a mountain bike is on the pavement
