Oh,ok PinBike, thank you for the descriptions, I haven't seen those pedicabs, they sound neat though, except when you get stuck behind one...haha
MUT's hmm...Now, I know I'm probably going to get in ALOT of heat for this comment. However, I know when DH and I were riding like I stated earlier, 90% of people are walking on the dirt path NEXT to the paved path, then you have those few that walk on the path, wearing headphones, and they are NOT speed walking, oblivious to the fact that there are cyclist, rollerbladers (with dangerous skiing poles flying out....we almost got hit) etc..... I just think if it says "bike path"....hmmm maybe I'm wrong, but I would think that means,....bike path.
I don't care how fast or slow you go, if it was just bikes on them and people were courteous and used caution,....ahhh...life would be grand wouldn't it?
Oh, and I forgot to mention beside the snake, we also had to dodge the horse...poo....which happend to be under a dark bridge and coming out of the sunlight and you can't see....mmmmm DH was cleaning off his back and bike last night...
