That's my sprint workout since there's a fair amount of stop signs as well. Sprint, stop, sprint, stop...

But I agree, too many idiots on the bike path. I've seen groups countless times walking shoulder to shoulder across the entire path. Really it even says "Bikes only" on the path.

I'm curious where this happened though. Was it the turn at I think 25th (i think it's that one) on the path towards the end that actually takes you off the path and onto the side of Hermosa Ave? Or is it the part at Herondo Ave. Where there is that intersting exit onto the other side of the road. I absolutely hate when people dump soap, dirt, etc. onto the path from their homes right on the strand.
