I hate it when people ride on the sidewalk too, but I am pretty sure that it is legal except in specific areas (example: Harvard Square, Central Square) that have a lot of foot traffic. <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

Bikes are NOT allowed to ride on the sidewalk in any area. You can't<br>use it as a way to go the wrong way down a one-way street or to get<br>around slow traffic. I mean you can, but you run the risk of getting<br>ticketed.
<br><br>This morning I was waiting for the bus to work (unfortunately I work<br>too far away to ride). A girl came around the corner on her mountain<br>bike, riding on the sidewalk, and almost hit me. I love my bike and I
<br>love cycling but I hate when people ride on the sidewalk. It's really<br>dangerous and inconsiderate too.<br>_______________________________________________<br>Boston Critical Mass mailing list<br><a href="mailto:list@bostoncriticalmass.org">
