I'm a cyclist and have wondered why anyone would cycle on the "multimodal" paths. Have you all seen some of these people driving these carts?I definitely feel safer on the roads where I can have enough room to get out of the way if need be.Besides cyclists on these paths move way too slow.There are times when speed is part of the ride and these paths don't allow you this option.
Another question I've been meaning to ask is what's up with the runners & walkers that insist on being in the" multimodal" paths where there are sidewalks.I realize that not all streets have sidewalks but where I live & run there are sidewalks and I still see people using the paths.
