I think it's totally senseless for bikers to use a parkway when a bike path is next to them. Isn't that what it's for? Bicycles? The bikes paths around lakes such as Nokomis are just that: Bike paths. I don't drive my car on the bike paths, bikers should stay off the parkway until they need to turn. I know it's a few people that do this, but it is very annoying, especially at rush hour time. Cars then get backed up because everyone is trying to be careful around the biker.
I have to side with the bike riders here, and will continue to exercise my legal right to ride on the roads. We all share the roads. It's OK.
