Letter: Hey, Use The Bike Path

To the cyclists who routinely ride on Coeur d’Alene Lake Drive: no matter what combination of alien-shaped helmet/distastefully colored spandex you wear, you are incapable of sustaining 45 mph. I know you are of the “Share the road” mentality, but there is no need to create a traffic issue when there is a bike path provided for you not 20 feet away. Please use it/Kevin Groat, Coeur d’Alene Press letter to the editor.

Question: Should a cyclist have to use a nearby bike trail instead of the road, if one is available?
