For me, riding on a MUP defies common sense because it does not suit my style of riding.
I'm with this guy..

Plus I get bored on MUPs.. I like riding in traffic, it keeps my senses sharp... also, the ones i've ridden around here are all curvy (because they're recreational?) while the roads are straight. I can get to my destination faster on the streets.
