The only time you have to carry and show an ID card/passport are:
US border crossing
driving a motor vehicle
active duty US Military
Airport security check.

There is never a requirement to show a cop an ID card for simply riding a bicycle.

You should reread Hiibel. The Supreme Court clearly noted that you are only required to verbally provide name and birth date. As I correctly stated, and under Hiibel case law, cyclist are NOT required to produce/show an "ID card".
