I have been reading the looong list of replies on the CM list as mentioned earlier. I live in Lakeview and think it sucks they are focusing on this area as opposed to others. But when it comes to the issue of adults riding on sidewalks I have to say I think they above all others should be first to get a ticket. I walk my dog two miles or so a day and on Broadway a lot of casual cyclists ride by the opposite direction going fast. Me and/or my dog have almost been run over or knocked over by these idiots many times. Most of these people ride like they haven't touched a bike in years. Swerving back and forth etc. It is very unsettling to see an unstable yuppie on a new mountain bike coming at you.

As far as the other issues. Most cars don't stop on back streets in my area at stop signs. Even when I do stop at a four-way stop and take my turn to go. The other cars just go right in front of me since I "am just a guy on a bike". So you can't win for loosing. Plus all the back streets are one way a lot of times.

I posted on another thread that if they try to get me I will start an OJ style low speed chase. They'll have to put those spikes across the road to stop me!
