Sign

What's with the "Cyclists Dismount" sign here? This is the Formartine & Buchan Way - a mixed use path - and there's plenty space to ride through the gap on the right and onto the clear track ahead. There are, in fact, another 30 plus miles of cycle track beyond this point so, after riding 12 miles from the office I find this sign really annoying and pointless.

On a positive note, I'd like to point out this was taken after 6pm and its still daylight here :)
