That is just one of the reasons that official Queensland Government documents have long suggested speed limits for cyclists should be regarded as unenforceable.
Unfortunately, QPS don’t seem to have gotten the memo with regards to the Kurilpa and Goodwill Bridges.
As Chris highlighted, TMR also says it’s potentially unsafe to ride a bike slower than 10kmh
How do you even keep your balance if you’re essentially pedaling at a brisk walking speed?
9-10kph is still fairly easy to keep balance without thinking about it IME. But without a speedometer, you’re going to have to go slow enough that balancing is something that takes effort if you want to stay under that speed…
That should not pose a challenge to anyone not currently learning to ride a bicycle
Easily if you have any balance at all.
