In Oregon there is no law referencing pedestrian use of bike lanes so it's neither legal nor illegal. And considering the absence of sidewalks in many areas cyclists should *expect* pedestrians to use bike lanes.
No it isn't,not at all. Bikes belong on the road and are legally allowed to use them.
A strict interpretation of Oregon law makes cycling in the road illegal on many streets while the vast majority of sidewalks are legal cycling routes,
