@mtnfreak, I totally agree. We are supposed to be really cautious of bicyclists but how can we when they do stupid things like that and get mad at us about it? I have had many times when some guy on a bike cut right in front of me and expected me to stop on a dime. If we have to watch the rules of the road, than so should they.

@TanDL. Why must the bicyclist ride on the sidewalk just before the two lane area? I think that it would be better for them to be on the road. Sure they have to dodge open car doors but they have to do that everywhere. I have had several times when a bicyclist breezed by my partner and ours dogs a fast rate of speed without letting us know. My little dog gets freaked at this and could jump out and get clipped by one of these jerks. Sorry but that is way more dangerous. Maybe a bike lane and pedestrian lane should be painted on that part like the path around Green Lake. If I was riding my bike there I would be on the road. Way too hard to dodge all the people on the sidewalk.
