Re: Bicycle riders in town
When I go out biking, I often ride on the sidewalk, but sloooowly. There are people and cars coming at you from everywhere, but I feel safer there than on the street. The trick is to go slow, almost jogging speed, so that you can stop fast for an erratic pedestrian, or a car flying out of a parking garage.
Ugh, that's always the scariest part! I would hate to have a car not see me when its coming out of a parking garage driveway, hit me, and knock me into street traffic! Right when TheBus is coming. Ewwwww, gross!
