She was very close to where that bloke on the left is, heading away from the camera, weather was perfect and there were only a couple of cars parked on the right. And in case you're wondering if something nasty lay ahead of her round that bend in the distance, the answer's no. Just a mini-roundabout at the junction of two streets. Traffic was very light, and the road is not one on which I need to take any particular care on my daily ride along it.
Waitrose Girl was riding on the pavement, and it would not surprise me in the least to learn that this is where she normally rides her bike.
Presumably Waitrose only employs persons of a reasonable level of intelligence, so my question is this. If we assume that this young woman (17/18 years old?) is not thick, and that she is not the sort of person who would otherwise break the law or engage in anti-social behaviour, how on earth might she, and similar-minded young people, be persuaded to cycle on the road?
