Yesterday, I rode my bike 6 miles on the road and 3 blocks on the sidewalk.
when riding on sidewalks, I go slowly and obey all rules for pedestrians (don't cross the street until there is a walk sign, look both ways before going out into the street, yield to people, even stopping and getting off if necessary) Sometimes true cyclists find themselves on sidewalks because there isn't a better way to get from point A to point B (like crossing a busy multiple lane street)
