Bike trails... heck, they are more dangerous than trafficked roads. One of our club ride leaders turned our gang of 8-10 riders briefly onto our local path on a nice autumn weekend, a year or so back. Slippery leaves on the ground, kids, dogs, iPod-plugged rollerbladers and a group of cyclists doing speeds in the upper teens, low 20's was enough for me to drop back and leave the potential unhappiness that lay just up ahead to others. Nope, not for me. I posted an email to my club membership and everyone that responded agreed we didn't belong on the path.
Saxon, I'm glad to read the bike saved you and the little girl. The father's actions go to show you just how little most people understand about bicycles. Now think about that same guy driving his car past you on the road. Honestly we got to be out of our freakin' minds doing what we love.
