    It appears a lot of you think that cyclists should be restricted to pedestrian speeds.

    There are already sidewalks that are usable for mobility scooters and wheelchairs. Forcing them to use cycle paths is forcing them into unsafe areas.

      On the contrary, in my experience there are no sidewalks or bicycle lanes or shoulders on the road. So what might be a terrible goal in relatively alternative-transportation-friendly spaces could also be a massive step up for other locations.
