Maybe it is just me but all these bikes around here are just an accident waiting to happen. Why on earth do they want to be on a road with 3 to 5 thousand pound vehicles zooming by them. The bikers visibility is very poor with helmets and tiny mirrors for viewing. I bike but stay in safe quiet neighborhoods. I know we hear about golf cart accidents here but I would imagine there are as many or more bike accidents of one type or another. Would not the bikers be safer on the paths?
