These people are walking and riding where they have a right to be and I am sorry that it seems to annoy some. Yes, there is a risk riding on the road, just as there is a risk driving on the road. It would be interesting to find out why this particular cyclist was hit.
Yeah....there's a risk breathing the air. I do not ride my trike recumbent on the road or multi-modal paths......period!!!! I don't ride either of my motorcycles anywhere in the Villages, unless I'm exiting same.

Just give a wide berth to everyone and drive very defensively. Do Not Speed. A cop will get you eventually.
