Bikes don't belong on sidewalks. Dangerous for pedestrians and cars can't see the cyclist as well

Now if we could just teach this to the general population. The number of times that I've gotten yelled at to "get off the road and use the sidewalk" has me prepared to make a wearable "share the road" sign.
