I am more of a commuter than a roadie, but I ride very aggressively. Not dangerously, mind you, but aggressively. When I find myself on the MUPs, it is a frustrating experience. No one really pays attention because they're too busy fiddling with their phone or iPod (the foot traffic). I cannot ride as fast on a MUP, and I like to go fast.

For me, riding on a MUP defies common sense because it does not suit my style of riding.
