I don't believe there is such a thing as a BIKE PATH along Buena Vista. There is a MMP that bicyclists are allowed to use but it is not a designated BIKE PATH.

Bicyclists can legally ride on Buena Vista. Like it or not, believe it is a good idea or not, think that you would do it or not, bicyclists can legally ride on Buena Vista. If I was out for anything other than a casual ride I would use the roads to avoid golf carts, turns, and multiple stops. Bicyclists should be able to do this without the fear that an inattentive driver will run into them.
