I ride South-North on the path parallel to Foothills up to the airport/jail/emissions office park mostly with some riding to the farmer's market on weekends.

The whole racing on the bike path thing really only bothers me when there are kids and moms with strollers on the path. Pretty dangerous to be zooming in and out of crowds of children and their parents. Getting passed isn't a big deal - in a town full of uber-cyclists that's the norm - but making a share used path a racetrack is just amateur hour. Getting to work fast, that's just commuting.
