Also learn to signal your intent when approaching an intersection. Thanks.
I totally agree with you! Multil-modal paths were created to be used by bicyclists, too. Buena Vista Blvd. and Morse Blvd. are a challenge for any motorist, let alone trying to avoid bicycle users. Also, bicycle users should be required to have rear view mirrors, blinking hazard lights and wear bright-colored clothing.
