GuelphToday received the following letter from reader Linda McFadden.

This evening we were making a left hand turn onto Woodlawn. A man and his little child proceeded to ride their bikes on the crosswalk.

When we told them the crosswalk was for walking, he told us to "eff off".

This gentleman and others who ride their bikes on the crosswalk should check the law.

The sad thing is if we had hit them, we would have felt awful and he would likely sue us.

Cyclists should be teaching their children the rules of the road.
