People ride bikes on BV all the time and I don't consider them "crazy." At least I have seat belts, brakes, brake lights, turn signals, and 1000+ pounds of cart around me. I actually feel much safer on BV than going on the cart path having to slow down/pass glof carts going 19 mph, joggers, walkers, bikers, etc. I also feel safer avoiding the craziness that I used to see in the tunnels on a daily basis.

I've only been driving on the streets for nine months, but in that limited time I can tell you that I feel infinitely safer.
