I got into a shouting match with a group of cyclists on the Golden Gate Bridge years ago. They were speeding across the bridge on the same sidewalk that Mrs. 40 and I made the unforgivable mistake of walking on. Dumbasses were doing at least 35mph weaving in and out of pedestrians. They had the same mentality that is shared among many cyclists, they think sidewalks are for bikes and pedestrians should get out of their way.

Here in the Peoples Republic of Portland Oregon, they also think they own the roads and want cars out of their way.

Sidewalks are for both bikes and pedestrians in many jurisdictions. But law, civility and common sense tell the faster biker to yield.
