It does not say anything about NOT riding on them, but it does say if a bike path is provided, cyclists must use the bike path.<br /><br />At one point in life, I thought I saw a law that said a cyclist cannot ride the sidewalk moving 8mph or faster for danger posed to pedestrians. I couldn't find it.<br /><br />Plus, you have dog walkers with extended leashes on sidewalks and what's to stop their dog from darting in front of you and wrecking you, hurting the dog and maybe the owner...RFalkenrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15092682535064605686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-580652384217013545.post-67306466659339966552012-05-31T11:28:32.610-05:002012-05-31T11:28:32.610-05:00A few weeks back, a good friend of mine reluctantl...A few weeks back, a good friend of mine reluctantly informed me that she does not like cyclist on the road. She didn't like how it slowed her down when they rode in the street to the point where it blocked traffic. Honestly, I understand her issue with it; however, there is no other place for cyclist to get their training in effectively.<br /><br />I mentioned that we don't ride on sidewalks because we then have to obey "sidewalk" rules. When she asked what those were, I lost my train of thought... and also lost the opportunity to educate her on the dangers of riding on a sidewalk. It triggered a future blog post. Initially, really, I think it all comes down to the fact that I have a higher chance of getting injured riding on a sideWALK than on the street. Feel free to beat me to the post, if you have some thoughts on it.ScottyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332965696050563493noreply@blogger.com
