IMO road bikers with drops and spandex just don't belong on rec bike trails for any distance, here they are just busy with kids and skateboarders and runners and horses and the most dangerous are the massive amounts of mums with strollers and little kids. IMO roadies are a risk to others on the multi use, especially clipped in. I am really lucky with roads though, I am in the edge of suburbia and BFE. However, even on my main exti road, a ride was killed when a truck lost a wheel and plowed into her group. It was random, possibly negligent car maintenance, but I could bet that at the time it happened there would have been minimal cars on the stretch of road and the chances of this happening was just not even imaginable.
