Wildwood - In response to the spout of the week from 8/7, it’s true, bikes shouldn’t have to be on the sidewalk. And the Crest is lucky that they actually have (some) bike lanes. But in Wildwood, we aren’t so lucky. Bikes aren’t allowed on the boardwalk. We threaten pedestrians on the sidewalk. And we risk anything from harassment to death driving in the road. Even those of us who follow basic rules of traffic have no option but to ride on the sidewalk sometimes. If I see a sidewalk with no one on it but a road full of cars, I’m riding on the sidewalk. Sorry! E-bikes, though, are a whole other issue.
