[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Riding a bike on the sidewalk is illegal in most parts of D.C./md/va.[/b]
Not to mention when the weather turns it is not feasible for most humans.
I agree that 75-100 a week is reasonable supplemental for transportation.  Who wants to be stuck in the house all day and "hope" you can borrow a car in the evening to go shopping?  Bad situation for any AP.[/quote]

Not true. That's an assumption people make:
Bicycles may be ridden on sidewalks unless prohibited by local ordinance or traffic control devices. While on sidewalks and shared use paths, bicyclists must always yield the right of way to pedestrians and give an audible signal before passing a pedestrian.

Cycling on sidewalks is permitted outside of the DC Central Business District. Cyclists must yield to pedestrians on sidewalks.

Bike riding on sidewalks is permitted in MORE areas of VA and DC than not permitted. The DC area is mostly the mall/museum area where pedestrian traffic is heavy. [/quote]
